Queen Anne's Lace is wild carrot, Daucus carota, which is not poisonous.
- hinkley 5y agoAbout 75% of QAL flowers also have a single black umbel in the center of the flower. Not the best eating then from what I gather, but in addition to the texture of the stalks that's a good indicator.
- DennisP 5y agoYes, the point is that it looks similar to water hemlock, which is extremely poisonous.
- derbOac 5y agoYes, just to emphasize this: in this case "wild carrots" actually means just that. Carrots from the grocery store and Queen Anne's lace are two subvarieties of the same species.
