Queen Anne’s Lace, native to Europe and Asia, is invasive in North America. It supports wildlife but outcompetes native plants.
Queen Anne’s Lace has lacy white flowers and hairy stems. Hemlock has smooth, purple-spotted stems and small, dense flower clusters.
Queen Anne’s Lace can cause skin irritation and allergic reactions, especially in those allergic to celery. It resembles hemlock, so caution is advised
