Thank you sister... Very well explained in a beautiful Mother Nature way... She has found me to help with exactly what I need... Law of attraction... She is growing like crazy in my yard... Thanks for you passion... 🙏❤
I'm so attracted to this plant and I don't know why! Besides its beauty!
Robin Rose Bennett it is such a pleasure to learn about the treasured plant beings from you. This Queen (aka wild carrot) grows in the field beside my neighborhood and somehow your video popped up as I sought to learn about her. I appreciate your delicate and gracious way of sharing and discussing the gifts of particular plants. I want you to know that since finding your book Healing Magic it has enriched my ability to appreciate the inner and outer lifefields of growing such and such. Because of you the wishful seed within me which needs to know, understand and relate with the plants and trees living nearby is actually able to develop finally, even though being kinda old now. (Yet you’ve pointed out 👆Queen Ann’s Lace ironically teaches that childlike mirthful wonder is the eternally accessible ageless spirit) I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. I imagine when it’s time, Spirit will connect me with other books of yours. I pretty much come by my books serendipitously, trusting the universe about my education but She also wants me to take initiative sometimes so either way I look forward to reading your other books. Thanks and Blessings to you dear friend 🙏📚 ✨
Edit to fix auto typo
I was a baby, 2 or 3 max, pulling up these and eating the roots, and the chive grass, playing with isopod pill bugs, contemplating a reoccurring dream of my still baby self but alone in an apocalypse disaster situation. And a beautiful lady found and was protecting me. And if she kissed you you turned green. I don't think it was a dream. And how did i know what to forage for and why wasn't i supervised. There's usually a spider on top of the queen Ann lace in my life. I used to tell my daughter orchid spiders come out to hunt after 9 because she wouldn't stay in bed. She called my bluff, and i showed her this plant spider to prove it's no isolated tactic and it worked for several years. The song kids by the MGMT describes what i was doing in the lawn, and the boiling water incident around the same time.
Thank you this was very helpful. I subscribed and look forward to more of your videos
Hello Excellent I like your video Thank you
So glad you liked it! Thanks for watching! 💚🌿
Thank you so much for this beautiful video. I so wanted to see you harvest the root of the plant.
I almost never harvest the root, though you can harvest first year root...I mostly use the upper portions of the plants.
I use two hands, one to hold the stalk, and one to pinch off the entire umbel. hope that helps
thank you for your reply Robin rose. Is there a reason why you don't harvest the root? And how would I know if it was the first year? @@RobinRoseBennett
You have such a beautiful way of speaking! Thank you very much for sharing. Wishing you all the best, Melissa
Thanks, Melissa! Green blessings 🌱 💚
I harvest the seeds and leaves and use them in cooking. The seeds I harvest still with green in them but fully formed , dry and chop in a food processor,and store it in jars. Makes the most wonderful robust seasoning to any meats, tastes a lot like sage mixed with basil but much more flavorful.
Sounds great! Thanks for sharing! 🌿
@@RobinRoseBennett , hello I watched you video and enjoyed it. Could tell me more about the kidney function of it ? I have a family member that has kidney failure
I find this plant very interesting. It's among the first few plants I've learned about. I was taking a walk in the woods with a local herbalist and she stopped to talk about Wild Carrot. Queen Anne's Lace. I agree with you.. she does appear to be playful in her growth and involvement...much like young women ha ha :) I find it so cool that her seeds go from an open, beautiful array of flowers (remembering the red centre) until she goes to seed and that umbra becomes much like an ovary then spreads her seed.
Hi Tracy, thanks for sharing that. The plants have much wisdom, don’t they 💚
And morphs into my mother and starts telling me to clean my room do this and do that .🤣
Thank you very much for such informative video, and for your deep knowledge of herbs.
It's my pleasure 🌿 glad you enjoyed it!
I am biologically a male. I am in search of things that help me become naturally nurturing and empathetic/sympathetic. I believe I am a trauma survivor and I sometimes struggle with anhedonia.
Beautifully done Robin, Thank You!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching! Green blessings 🌿
Thank you for such an informative video! I have two questions and would love your wisdom:
1. Is Queen Anne’s Lace safe/helpful for pets? Specifically my dog?
2. I’ve heard that the root of the second year is not ideal compared to the root of the first year of the plant. Is there any benefit to eating/using the second year root? Or is it just an issue of taste?
thank you so much for the information. lovely to hear about its spiritual aspect too!
Thanks, Robin!
thank you for all the information, such as blessing!! I love nature and for me, natural remedies are the best, once again thank you
I’m happy you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching! 🌿
Thank you for information.
I just got one plant that appears in one of my potted plants. Searching for what it is. And found you video which is very informative.
I believe plants choose you research into. What it can do for you bless you and all my love x
Shalom! How do you use it for your endocrine system?
Awesome! Thank you
You bet! 🌿
Beautiful, Robin. I am wondering, what are the contraindications to using Queen Anne as a natural contraception? I have a 15 month old and I am still breastfeeding her, though, not exclusively. I am wondering if this would be safe for me to use as a natural contraceptive.
Aminah Moon Irie Bey...you asked this question a year ago but I just saw it...I have my most detailed info on indications and contraindications in my book, The Gift of healing Herbs....and some of that info is on my website in the article on Wild carrot in the resources section.
Nice to see you. Great video.
Thanks Tomisha!
Robin Rose Bennett 💖💖💖
Wonderful! Thank you!
Hello! Love th vido, and can't wait to read your books.
Is it safe to take this as a daily supplement?
Is it ok to buy the tincture from walmart/amazon? Not sure if it's safe?
THanks! (:
Thanks. Very good info🙏🏻
Glad it was helpful! 🌿
I love nature, but not as much as you. Thank you for your video.
I live in upstate S.C. Everyone says to stay away from these bc they're full of "chiggers"? Is this true?
hmmm...having never gathered wild carrot flowers in SC, I don't know. However, many bugs love the blossoms so I wouldn't be terribly surprised if that was true. I'd ask SC or other southern herbalists how they harvest the flowers without the chiggers! Any guesses I might have as to how to deal with them would be speculation as I have no experience with those particular tiny insects. Here, I look into the flowers and do my best to pick the ones that are bug-free.... Sometimes I'll leave various kinds of flowers outside for a few hours giving other bugs a chance to escape
Tea for kidneys from the LEAVES? FLOWERS? ROOTS, OR ALL OF THEM?
Flowers and seeds!
No mention of how this plant can be mistaken for poison hemlock which is lethal.
hey Perry leaves ...
Thanks for bringing that up.
I don’t teach wildcrafting on line, but
Here are some good general guidelines:
Do:
learn your plant identification from local foragers/wild-crafters/herbalists/gardeners whenever possible.
Buy good field guides, too.
Don't:
gather and/or ingest/imbibe a plant if you're not absolutely sure what it is.
A Big, Little Herbal Tip
Re: telling Queen Anne’s Lace/Wild Carrot (Daucus carota) from Poison hemlock (Conium maculatum)-
Poison hemlock stalks are smooth, hairless and streaked with purple.
It is one of our few, most poisonous plants.
Wild carrot's stalks are covered with hairs.
Herbalists have been known to say: “Queen Anne has hairy legs.” ; )
The flowers are sweet smelling and delicious-tasting in teas and salads.
The whole plant is benign, nourishing, and medicinal, physically and spiritually.

Wild hemlock is too similar, don't try. Poisoned carrots in shakesphere. Plantain is easier to identify. Plantain medical uses on every continent
Thanks, Robin!
