Some are quite common, you just don't recognize them. Queen Anne's Lace,
for example, is wild carrot.
Hey that's cool Can you eat eat queen ann's lace?

In most of Texas, the plant that looks like (and is sometimes called) Queen
Anne's Lace is NOT Wild Carrot, but hemlock. If the roots smell like
carrot, it's Wild Carrot, but the local plant smells bitter and is
poisonous. Wild Carrot does grow in parts of east Texas.
