Queen Anne's Lace


Queen Anne's Lace is one beautiful wildflower that you will see along side the roads this June. The beautiful flower is one that makes the roadsides more beautiful. If you are a wildflower enthusiast like me, you wish you could pull them up and plant them in your own yard, but any seed store or catalog online will due for this beauty.
You can find them throughout the State of Alabama as far South as Mobile to North as Huntsville.

Queen Anne's Lace surprisingly started in Europe and it's name was given for the flowery head that looks like lace. According to The Gardener's Network, it is known to be that wild carrot you find along Alabama's Roadsides. I don't know whether that carrot is edible or not, but I once found one of these in Kindergarten and ate it, and heard WSFA-TV NBC affiliate Meteorologist Rich Thomas talk about the wild carrots that grow around Alabama's Wild.
