Carrot Flowers

“Carrot flowers” can refer to a couple of different things depending on the context:

1. Culinary Presentation: In the culinary world, “carrot flowers” often refer to intricate garnishes created by carving carrots into floral shapes. These are commonly used in Asian cuisine for decorative purposes, adding an artistic touch to dishes.

2. Botanical Aspect: If we are talking about the actual plant, the carrot (Daucus carota) produces clusters of small white or slightly pink flowers that form an umbel, which is a group of short flower stalks that spread from a common point, somewhat resembling an umbrella. These flowers are typical of the Apiaceae family, and they appear in the second year of the plant’s life cycle, as carrots are biennials.
