The bristle umbels or burdock chervil ( Torilis ) are a genus of plants within the umbelliferae family (Apiaceae), the fruits of which are covered with spines or bristles.
description
They are one to two-year-olds, rarely perennial outside of Europe, with one to two-pinnate or pinnate leaves . The end sections are lanceolate to elongated and deeply pinnately toothed or lobed. Like all plants, the leaves are usually short and pressed, but with rough hairs.
The flowers are in loose to dense, terminal or axillary double umbels . Bracts and bracts are missing or very few. The petals are tinged with white or sometimes pink.
The rounded, egg-shaped or elongated fruits are flattened on the sides with a narrow joint surface. They are covered with spines or bristles, which are rough with 20 to 50 µm high papillae and, in most species, have a hook-shaped curve at the tip.
