I’m back once more to introduce you to another flower: Chocolate Queen Anne’s Lace or Daucus Carota, also known simply as Dara.

One chocolate lace plant produces a wide variety of colors. You’ll find everything from light pink (and almost white!) to dark chocolate and everything in between.

This characteristic of Chocolate Queen Anne’s Lace is great for designers who are looking to add color gradation to their arrangements. Not only does this plant offer a range of colors, but it also provides various sizes and shapes as well!
