Vegetative characteristics

The Hunds chervil is a dainty, annual herbaceous plant and reaches heights of 15 to 80 centimeters. It forms thin roots. The parts of the plant smell strongly aromatic when rubbed; the smell is reminiscent of pine needles. The round, upright stem is often purple at the base.

The alternately arranged leaves are divided into leaf sheath and leaf blade. The leaf sheaths have skin margins and shaggy hairs. The dark green leaf blade is three to four times pinnate.

Generative characteristics

The double-gold inflorescences appear to be opposite and are three to five-pointed. A shell is missing. The rays are almost bare. The shells are one to five leaved. The relatively small flowers are greenish-white. The petals are about 0.5 mm long, with short margins, with a very short, indistinct tip.

The fruits, which are dark brown to black when ripe, have a length of 4 to 5 millimeters, are ovate, densely hooked, bristly and have a 1 to 2 millimeter long beak. The stylus is almost entirely missing.

The number of chromosomes is 2n = 18.

ecology

The Hunds chervil is a rare, extremely thermophilic ruderal plant and therophyte .

The flowering period is from April to June. Self-pollination takes place , with the stamens bending inwards.

The hook-shaped fruits allow Velcro to spread through animals. After the fruit ripens in July, the plant dies.

distribution

Its distribution area extends from North Africa across Europe to the Middle East . The dog chervil is widespread from the Mediterranean region north to Central Europe. For example, it is a neophyte in Great Britain and North America .
