Thaspium trifolatum or Meadow Parsnip produces a cluster of arching stems with trifoliate, lightly serrated leaves grow from a large fleshy root. A branching, hollow flower stalk topped with multiple tiny flowers emerges in late spring or early summer. The flowers are about 1/4″ across, with yellow petals encased in red to purple bracts that are borne in compound umbels that are three to five inches across. Winged seed capsules follow the flowers.
