Ammi visnaga ‘Green Mist’ | Queen Anne’s Lace | Bouquet Filler

Ammi visnaga ‘Green Mist’ is one of the most elegant filler flowers for cut flower gardens and bouquets.

Strong stems, larger umbels than Ammi majus, and long flowering make it a florist’s favorite.

Growing up to 120 cm tall, Green Mist blooms abundantly from June to September, attracting bees and butterflies with its nectar-rich flowers. It’s a versatile choice for borders, wildlife-friendly gardens, or as a statement in mixed bouquets.
