Perennial. July, August. 



Root weaker in flavour than the preceding. Herb taller, larger in 

 all its parts, especially the leaflets, which, in Britain at least, 

 are not subject to be subdivided ; they are ovate-oblong, smooth, 

 shining, .sometimes slightly lobed, or cut, always strongly ser- 

 rated ; the odd one always, more or less deeply, three-lobed. 

 Umbels of many slender rays, without any bracteas. Fl. white ; 

 we have not the elegant alpine rose-coloured variety. Styles 

 capillary, sometimes even longer than the fruit. Some/lowers 

 seem to be abortive, in the central part of the partial umbels.
