Roots at least 6, slightly and evenly fleshy (except for Stirton & Zantovska 11437 where roots are very fleshy), purported to have a sweet taste. Leaves usually coarsely dissected, very hairy to sparsely hairy, often present during flowering and fruiting, leaf bases persist as somewhat inconspicuous fibres. Petioles up to ± 200 mm long, hairy. Basal pinnae with petiolules up to ± 80 mm long, sometimes partly bipinnate. Upper pinnae pinnate, pinnule base often inequilateral. Ultimate leaflet segments relatively large, ovate, base usually fairly broad, margins indented to varying depths. Inflorescence scape up to ± 2 m and striated with usually 4-8 umbels per scape, main umbel with 3-7 rays. Involucral bracts relatively large, persistent. Involucel of small narrowly ovate bracteoles, more numerous than involucral bracts. Calyx lobes cusp-like, up to 0.3 mm long. Petals yellow. Fruits ± 6-7 mm long, ± 2-3 mm wide, mericarps homomorphic, without wings. The recorded flowering time is mainly October and November with occasional records continuing into February.

Perennial herb, up to 2 m tall, roots numerous, ± fleshy. Leaves dying at flowering, coarsely dissected, scabrous to pilose, segments oblong, obtuse. Umbels on long, branched peduncles. Flowers yellow. Fruit 5-7 mm long, oblong, mericarps isodiametric, ribbed, homomorphic, vittae present, rib oil ducts inconspicuous. From: Magee, AR. 2013. Apiaceae.

It may be distinguished by the leaves which are both broad and hairy. Hairs are usually not confined to the petiole and main veins but are also present on the lamina. Plants from the extreme eastern localities ('Sutherland form') are glabrescent, with a few hairs confined to the petioles and midribs of the leaves. Annesorhiza grandiflora appears to be very closely related to A. latifolia and the latter may eventually prove to be a northern form of A. grandiflora rather than a distinct species. The two species are similar except that A. latifolia tends to be more robust, less hairy (although two hair types were observed as opposed to a single one in A. grandiflora), and have a different leaf size and texture (almost 'cabbage-like'). Anatomically, the roots and petioles of the more robust A. latifolia contain more lignified cells than those of A. grandiflora. Generally this is also true as far as the lignification of the fruits is concerned and the marked similarity between the Sutherland specimens of A. grandiflora and A. latifolia, has been remarked on earlier. The pattern of lignification provides further support to a close relat From: Tilney, PM; Van Wyk, B-E. 2001. A revision of the genus Annesorhiza (Apiaceae). Nord. J. Bot. 21(5): 615-649.
