Description
She’s still beautiful, even after a tough winter and a tougher spring, this deceased Queen Anne’s Lace plant still catches the eye.
Daucus carota, whose common names include wild carrot, bird's nest, bishop's lace, and Queen Anne's lace is a white, flowering plant in the family Apiaceae, native to temperate regions of Europe and southwest Asia, and naturalized to North America and Australia.
This beneficial weed can be used as a companion plant to crops. Like most members of the umbellifer family, it attracts wasps to its small flowers in its native land; however, where it has been introduced, it attracts very few wasps. This species is also documented to boost tomato plant production when kept nearby, and it can provide a microclimate of cooler, moister air for lettuce, when inter-cropped with it.
OR, it could be a dead Giant Angelica. Maybe somebody could advise...
Some digital effects were applied to the original image after the photograph was made. No electrons were harmed during the transition. Ordered images will not contain the Fine Art America watermark.
