Although cow parsley can self seed prolifically, this purple variety is a stunner and can seed itself where it sees fit in my opinion. It has very feathery leaves and delicate frilly white flowers.It tends to have a biennial habit.
You can restrict its seeding habit by removing the seed heads. If it is in an exposed site it will need staking.
It will try to grow anywhere but does best in free draining soil and sunny-ish sites.
You propagate this from seed.
