Hi All, Just my two cents worth...
Us true prairie dwellers (Especially those in the Goose Lake Prairie State Natural Area, one of the largest Prairie Parks in the U.S.) know Queen Anne's lace to be an invasive. Since it is thought to have originated in England, we still consider it an outsider after all these years. As a weed, It will crowd out other prairie plants given time...but I also love it. My mother-in-law preferred it in her garden more-so that a rose bush....go figure? Nature's Lace is beautiful.

Gave it to my mother in law. We plan on planting this beautiful flower/weed/carrot in our garden soon just like King James and Queen Anne did in their royal garden. It is actually a wild carrot called Daucus Carota and you can read more info than you really wanted to know here: ETC.......... - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
