\nyou are likely to confuse Daucus carota<\/i> var. carota
\n<\/i>with Ammi majus<\/i><\/span> in flowers<\/span> (although leaf segments are slightly broader in Ammi)<\/span> but not when Daucus starts fruiting, the whole inflorescence shrinks like a ball <\/span>and the fruits are very spiny and winged, that must be partly responsible for tangling of fruits.<\/span> Here are fresh photographs of that.
