Queen Anne’s Lace
Ptown Sights by Peter Hocking
As a kid, I fell in love the delicate intricacy of Daucus Carota, commonly known as wild carrot, bird’s nest, and Queen Anne’s lace. And I felt entirely deflated when some adult told me it was a weed. I later learned that weeds are simply wild plants that defy human efforts to tame the plant kingdom. That allows me to again love Daucus Carota – maybe a little more.
