Is there a pink flowering cow parsley? A neighbour mentioned it but I have
never heard of it before.

Not sure if it's actually Cow Parsley, but Chaerophyllum hirsutum is
often described as pink cow parsley.

Sorry if I'm out of line, but there is certainly a pink variant of
Hog weed - which in flower looks very similar to Cow Parsley.
It can be quite a purple colour in bud and pales on flowering.

Sometimes there's a pink tinge to the flowers of wild hogweed too.

There's a dark red, almost chocolate-black leaved variety of cow parsley
called 'ravenswing', but the flowers are white. Very striking plant.
