This herb is prized for its fresh, cucumber-like flavour and is often used in salads.

The flowers of buttercup parsley are small, round, and not particularly conspicuous. They appear in dense, spherical clusters on slender stems above the foliage.

Buttercup parsley thrives in full sun but can tolerate partial shade, especially in warmer climates. It is drought-tolerant once established. It is easy to grow and maintain, requiring minimal care. After flowering, it can be pruned back to maintain its shape and encourage new growth.
