Ammi
Nile Valley and the wider Mediterranean basin
Known since antiquity, valued as a cut flower in modern floristry
All but scentless; a faint green note rises from the crushed foliage
Delicacy, elegance & airy lightness
A relative of the carrot, Ammi opens in wide lace-like umbels of tiny white flowers on slender stems. In an arrangement it works as a veil rather than a focal point, softening the edges around roses or peonies and lending Amicis bouquets an unstudied, garden-gathered ease.
