Carum caucasicum

Carum caucasicum is an herbaceous perennial known for its ability to thrive in the rocky alpine and subalpine regions. Its leaves are finely divided and feathery, akin to a delicate lacework, which forms a striking contrast to the rugged terrain. The plant boasts umbrella-like clusters of small creamy white flowers that bloom in summer, attracting a network of pollinators. Adapted to the harsh climate, carum caucasicum has a sturdy taproot system, anchoring it firmly amidst the stones.
