Poison Hemlock is starting to show up in our county.

There are several ways to distinguish Queen Anne's lace from poison hemlock:

1. Stem: Poison hemlock has a smooth, hairless stem with purple spots or streaks, while Queen Anne's lace has a hairy stem that is not spotted or streaked.

2. Leaves: The leaves of Queen Anne's lace are finely divided and hairy, while poison hemlock leaves are lacy and smooth.

3. Flowers: Queen Anne's lace flowers are white and have a flat-topped cluster, while poison hemlock flowers are also white but are arranged in small, umbrella-shaped clusters.

4. Smell: Queen Anne's lace has a sweet, carroty smell when crushed, while poison hemlock has a musty, unpleasant odor.

5. Location: Poison hemlock is more likely to grow in wetter areas such as ditches or near streams, while Queen Anne's lace is more commonly found in fields and along roadsides.

Remember, it is important to err on the side of caution and never ingest any plant that you are not 100% certain is safe to eat.
