Properly, "Queen Anne's Lace" is the common name of the edible wild carrot plant Daucus carota. Because of its large, composite, white flowers, however, the plant is often confused with other plants with a similar appearance -- especially yarrow (Achillea millefolium), poison hemlock (Conium maculatum), and fool's parsley (Aethusa cynapium). Some of these others do have medicinal merit, but others are poisonous.
