I didn’t know Queen’s Anne’s Lace was wild carrot. DOTS has a pix of one as part of his continuing series on the Weeds of Brooklyn. He’s also got some new links to great Brooklyn blogs.

He took this pix near the Vanderbilt yards. Queen Anne’s Lace, the wild carrot, is one of the most familiar weeds in North America. An ancestor of the domestic carrot, this plant is a native of Europe which was introduced to this country by early European settlers.
