- Water hemlock is even more troubling that its relative hemlock. Through the years people have accidentally eaten it because it looks similar to wild carrot. We will look at the symptoms people suffer through when accidentally ingested. Also we will look at what researchers suggest may be a remedy to help someone who may be suffering from it.

The best water filter in the world. It filter 13,000 gallons - That is over 35 years if you filtered 1 gallon a day. I bought one years ago and have used it camping. Expensive but cheap because it is the cheapest per gallon that I know of. amzn.to/3SxSig6

When I was younger I used it as a straw. What happened is my heartbeat went over 300 according to the EMT sitting in the back of the ambulance with me. My chest started hurting. I told him and he looked very worried and said you don't want to have a heart attack until we get you to the hospital. I said man, I'm trying. Now mind you all I did is make a straw out of it and pretend I was sipping through it. Basically touched it to my lips. And handled it. Almost killed me.
Most of the poison is in the stem.
THIS needs to be taught in schools.👍
It would be a great subject to learn.
It was in my highschool but I was to busy getting high to pay attention... One of my many regrets.
They do in many schools, but a 16 year old cares more about awkward relationships.
Instead of woke bs.
@@rebel1187 There should be an introduction to these plants in grade school and then a reminder every year after that.
Growing up In NY we were constantly warned about the yew shrubs (with their gooey red berries) planted as hedges EVERYWHERE (way back when)... And, in CA the poisonous oleander trees are ubiquitous along the highways, streets, and yards.
But I don't recall any formal teachings in the classrooms. It was the parents and teachers warning us offhandedly, and then the smart kids passed the lessons on to their less-aware friends whenever needed.
I'm pretty sure the kid across the street saved my life a couple of times. I was always chewing on wild plants.
Lived a remote cabin that was made vacant when the former occupant died as a result of ingesting water hemlock. Was told by a member of his family that "he died very violently ill".
This is so frightening. I used to pull up queen Ann's lace all the time. For bouquet or just to play with it. I didn't know of poison hemlock. A month or so ago a post on FB popped up in a gardening group about a young girl and her encounter ( just touching the plant!!!) with poison hemlock. She swelled up in hives and went into anaphylaxis and the poor young child almost died. She survived but the pictures of her where terrible. So thank you for making this video. People have to know how to spot poison plants even though they may think it is a common weed!
Don't live in fear. Educate yourself.
The plant oils cause burns when exposed to the sun.
@healthyfitmom
I picked this plant as a child also, never ate any, but just like you I thought oh pretty flowers...
I see it all over in the state I live in.
NGL I totally thought this was queen Anne's lace. I've only bought it dries and I wouldn't have known better
Yes i thought it was queens annes lace was the same poisonous plant. I didnt know hemlock was different plant altogether.
I've been learning &foraging for 5 years. I've watched a lot of videos, follow all the well-known herbalist and non have addressed this plant as thoroughly as you. TY!
It’s incredible just how fragile we humans actually are. I have always aired on the side of caution with wild edibles. Unless I am absolutely positive about it, I never risk it. Thanks for sharing this information. It truly is information that could save a life.
Hey not correcting ya to be a d*ck. I just figure you may appreciate knowing is all so you don't get someone who actually gets all egotistical about it at you sometime. Its "erred" on the side of caution! Erred meaning like if you are going to make an error you prefer to lean towards one error or choice then the other. "to be especially careful rather than taking a risk or making a mistake" . Its a common error! Hope you are well!
A lot of us hear 'aired' as kids and just get kinda stuck in the misunderstood hearing of it. Much like any 'egg corn' word.
erred. i'm fun at parties
When hunting for native plants around a local pond, i looked up the most toxic plants beforehand to ID them. There is water hemlock in areas so i knew about it. It's a town pond with a walking trail and people fish there. I feel obligated to report this to the parks department to protect unsuspecting people. They should also post laminated charts of toxic plants so people can be educated. Many have their children with them.
When i was a child I played in woods and fields before the housing developments and always picked something flowering to bring to my mother. I never thought anything to be so painfully crippling and fatal back then. This video made me so much more aware.
Maybe, next time, just take a spray bottle of Round-Up with you and kill the weed. That method is faster and more reliable then reporting it ANY parks department. If you spray it, it won't seed anymore and it just withers away. Forever.
Be careful using the Roundup itself
Poison Hemlock. Story of hiker, in shorts & boots hiking thru mountainous region. Walked through a large area covered in this plant. Became neuro toxic & died alone, because of contact with leaves against his legs. Death determined by secondary toxicology. Plant poison was not addressed in 1st toxicology. Died so quickly that his lunch was undigested. He was a seasoned hiker.
Wow, that is a rough experience to go through.
@@HealthAndHomestead
Yup. Doesn’t get much rougher than death.
Kay, that is like something out of a nightmare... l know some hikers... Dont know if they know....l see this weed by creek where l live.... Don't know if peop!e are aware there are things that are just deadly....it doesn't have to be a rattlesnake...
I don’t buy it.
Like emergency rescue saying opioid can be transmitted via skin contact.
When really it’s misinformation
Where the only reason for response is panic attacks
He probably did more than rub his legs against it or he was extra sensitive... Most people can handle or touch it without ill effects.
So glad I watched this. Recently starting foraging and been doing 'nibble tests' ..see if my lips tingle, go numb etc..
No more nibble testing for me!!! 😬
Thank you.. 🙏
NEVER nibble something to "test" it! Purchase a book with photographs of poisonous plants, so you can SEE what they look like. If you are not absolutely sure it is safe to eat, don't touch it, just pass it by.
That was really helpful. I had never heard of water hemlock. It is really great to learn how to tell the difference between that and queen anne’s lace. Great to know about activated charcoal.
Queens Ann lace grows shorter The plant talked about here can get about 5,, feet tall at times. I used to see it allot. My brother and I used to hike all the time and I remember seeing this plant growing.
We were always pulling plants off and sticking them in our mouths. Especially sassafras we knew what we were handling, but that could have been fatal.
We were always loafing around in the woods by ourselves. I don't think that our family knew about this plant either.
One thing he failed to mention is that the Queen Anne's Lace inflorescence is more compact and always has one tiny dark purple floret in the center.
@@notmyworld44 Yes it usually has a dark spot in the centre of the umbel but in my experience not always. It always has - as well as the hairy legs - little fronds that look almost like another green flower stuck on the underside of the umbel.
@@earthsmoke9450 Thank you for that.
🙂👍
@@notmyworld44 No probs friend. All the best to you!
Just today, I saw what I thought was queen anne's lace growing in my garden bed. It had been there for a while and looked like it was making seeds. I pulled it. Nope it was an actual carrot, and I really hope the seeds are developed enough. I hung it to dry, so hopefully that will save the seeds. At least I knew it wasn't hemlock! Having seen a couple videos on the stuff, I think I can tell the difference now.
Thank you for sharing this. My young lads and I often walk the trails around here and see this stuff all the time. We try to avoid ticks in the tall weeds so avoid it but that is rather scary because we do often forage for wild foods. Good to know to avoid this and how to identify wild carrots
Have something like this growing all over the new property I just bought. Went to look and STILL can’t tell if it’s poisonous or not. So glad I didn’t make those “beautiful bouquets” when everything first started blooming. 😳
I had one this year under my apple tree. I didn't know it was poison but then decided to look it up. Glad I did.
Queen Anne's lace also has a single smaller dark purple flower in the center of the flowers. You can also pull out the plant and smell the root. If it smells like carrot, has a purple flower, and hairy stem... it's queen Anne's lace AKA Wild carrot.
Uh, if your wrong and it is hemlock, touching it and you are poisoned!
No, poison hemlock (assuming water hemlock as well) have a carrot smell in their roots. And the dark purple flower is not always there. The best way to identify wild carrot is through the hairy and pithy stems.
I often carry activated charcoal and have used it for about 30 years. As a poultice it works great for any stings or bites from insects. For internal purposes, I find ginger ale best to mixt the powder for drinking. Caution, charcoal will stain clothing and carpets.
On day adventures there have been times when I didn't have any with me and someone got stung by a bee. I made a fire to intentionally make charcoal, mashed it up and added water to make a poultice then applied it to the sting site. It removed the poison for about 15 minutes, then clean the poultice off and apply a new fresh one. It pulls the poison from the bee sting.
Thank you Macnuth for your knowledge of activated charcoal cheers
Baking soda right away safest for bee stings
Smokeless Tobacco is best thing I've found for bee/wasp stings. Just my 2 cents
This planet about to BURN AND die. You all focusing on minor. Get right with God and make sure we have food and water...stop stupidity. This is minor. Gas prices rising and food shortages
Our government wild
Too much going on for this IGNORANT video. You can tell he is biblically BLIND
@@averagenobody6577 Actual smoking tobacco works too. I knew a guy who got stung quite often while surveying properties. He smoked, so he always had cigs with him. He'd break off a piece of the end of a fresh cig, spit on it if water wasn't available to dampen it, and apply it to the sting. Said it worked like a charm.
Wow, I had no idea this plant is throughout the US. Thank you for sharing this information
You are welcome. We had fun making this video. It is amazing how it is all over North America.
Another way to compare wild carrot vs hemlock is to look at the flowers. Water hemlock flower branch out into clusters, but carrots have a single large bunch. Another difference in the flowers is that the wild carrot have a single purple flower in the middle of the bunch of white flowers.
@@ringofasho7721 Thank you for sharing this added information
@SHAK3 N I was just not aware of it and being a novice to look alike poisonous plants it was amazing how easily it could be mistaken for the other. It was good to learn about!
@SHAK3 N it's been around and well known for hundreds of years. The new foraging spike is what I attribute poisonings to. People research edible plants online and have no real world experience
It’s a great idea then to bring activated charcoal when you go hiking, just in case.
For sure. Great for hikes and traveling in any situation. We take it nearly everywhere we go. Blessings.

I have always traveled a lot and love the herbal world. I appreciate this reminder because I was checking out some last fall and cut the flowers for a vase. I couldn't remember what it was called, and I did get a slight rash on my fingers. I ALWAYS keep Activated Charcoal in my medicine chest and especially travel gear; always. Bentonite clay is also a good detox. A tip is that the activated charcoal can be a little hard on one's constitution, so I always follow it up with Yakult (or yogurt) to replace the good gut stuff. Activated charcoal is amazingly fast and effective. Great content. New subbie!
Spurge is fairly attractive. I let some go in my yard. After a couple of years it was taking over. Hubby pulled it and I carried it to the back of the yard, where we replanted it along the fence. I got a big rash, then did some reading, which says don’t get its latex juice on your skin. The next year I just brushed against one and got a rash. The ones we moved did not survive the move, and I use gloves and pull any I see. Fortunately it is pretty easy to get rid of, even though kind of invasive If left unchecked.
Excellent lesson I didn't know about these plants! Great job and you're saving lives!!😇🙏🏾
In Yorkshire, UK, as children we used to call it “Mother Die”. Thanks for sharing.
The flowers also could look like yarrow-which may be why that family made it into a salve.
Holy crap
Looks so much alike, Baby’s breath in bouquets look just like this? Wow.
The difficulty in identifying plants for me, is the abundant use of names for the same plant. I also find most ID sources focus on the flower not the stems & leaves. I have a plant in the Umbelliferae / Apiaceae family which is still unknown to me, I have pulled it bare handed it’s not toxic topically, it is though, very invasive it takes over my red bergamot if allowed, unlike the Monarda which attracts Humming Birds & butterflies, this plant attracts flies.
Your video is helpful in identifying Water Hemlock, thank you.
I LOVE your channel!! You give such succinct, pertinent, useful information!!! Thank you for working so hard to provide such in-depth information!!
@SHAK3 N lol I haven’t bought anything except the like and subscribe button- I don’t care what he makes from YT but I learn something that ENRICHES my life so I really don’t care!
We had hemlock growing under our apple tree in Washington state. Later found hemlock growing in parks and along trails.
We also had deadly night shade.
I'm very glad I subscribed to your channel earlier today. I am really enjoying your information and the lucid and friendly way you present it.
I'm a ginger. We have very sensitive skin. I also grew up playing in the woods, hunting, camping, ect. Skin irritation was just part of it. (My grandmother used to put me in a bath of oatmeal, or bleach, lol)
Anyway, I just recently bush hogged her property, and there is wild onion, wild garlic, and a bunch of hemlock.
Just pretty much mowing the grass (4 ft tall) was terrible. She sold her old tractor that was an old row crop tractor, and got one of those little compact tractors. So, I was right in there with the stuff.
Is there anything that helps against irritation / immune response for sensitive skin / eyes?
@@marcus8710A spacesuit.
I subscribed after watching your video on 11 survival crops and then while watching this one’s opening, I thought, “wow, he really talks like Chad Kreuzer” and low and behold!! You’ve created a great channel and glad I ran across it, I’m glad you’re doing well and have moved to the country! Blessings!
This is why it is so important to make your own activated charcoal and store lots of it on the homestead. Either super high temperature or chemical (never tried this one) are the methods I know of.
you could just buy a big 1/2 gallon carton of it from a pet supply place. it is used to polish aquarium water as it ADSORBS heavy metals into its atomic nooks and crannies.
A very important video Chad. Thank you for putting it together.
You are welcome. It was enjoyable to put together.
Thank you for your videos short and straight to the point excellent way to follow councils
Great video and quite informational in helping to identify the differences between hemlock and wild carrot.
Yarrow looks similar but is good for circulation. I add yarrow tea to my morning coffee.
I was unaware of the similarity and differences between this and queen anne's lace. It is now a quest of mine to identify some of this in the wild.
be careful. there are a couple of others which look very similar
Thank you for this offering. I have picked wild carrot but NEVER heard of this plant! Gratitude !!!!!
Thanks for sharing that really useful information, especially about charcoal.
This plant is grows wild in the uk and Ireland as well.
Great information video. As you see most of us didn't know ! Thank you for clear identifiers !
I've been on so many hiking tours in the North West, and no one ever warned us, hikers, about the dangerous plants of this kind. Thanks for your video. 👋💐❤️
Thanks for sharing this . i just found it a couple of them along the road lol. Its appreciated , we get alot of info about edible plants but not enough about dangerous ones. take care
It's nice to meet you, friend. Thank you so much for sharing this very important and vital information with us! I am curious if you might know of any plants that are toxic to cats too. Have a very wonderful day! I really appreciated the information you shared with us in this video.
Fantastic post young man THANK4SGIVING
The active charcoal is a great choice, but redundancy is crucial in life threatening situations. I would also take grandmas old fashioned remedy Caster Oil, and induce vomiting. Dump all the content of the stomach, and both intestines, then drink as much distilled water as possible.
( I am not a doctor and this is not medical advice only a precaution.) Being hospitals are places I avoid like the plague, I choose not to support the medical drug cartels.
Smart.
Your video just motivated me to get some activated charcoal to have on hand for a broad range of reasons.
Wow. Thank you! Just sent this video to my family. I just started planting Wild Carrot in our yard. Want to make sure while they’re out hiking some day they don’t come across the wrong thing.
Thank you for making this video there eh! I'm in New Brunswick Canada a few years ago gotten a bad burn from wild parsnip... had no idea cut some with a wipper snipper got some juice on my foot then sat in the sun on the deck with my wife for a bit, with in a couple days sever burns and blisters, when to work the next day started reacting I thought I had gotten a chemical burn with caustic or acid is how bad it was...unfortunately I have all over my yard
I can't imagine how horrible that must've been!
This video is very informative and everyone should watch it! I had to subscribe so I can watch more of your videos.
This is a fantastic video and life saving info. Thank you, as I have a bunch of this along my property.
Lomatium Disectum is actually wild 🥕 carrot and IS edible. In fact it's an antiviral that saved the American Indians who called it Biscuit root, survived the pneumatic plague in early 1900s. This is so distressing to learn about.
The flute of peril.. You should do Oleander next. It has escaped cultivation. Campers have made hot-dog cooking sticks of peril. They are nice and straight.
Thanks for adding a scripture that so aptly illustrates this weed . I had no idea there was such a devastating plant . Bless you
I was picking these the other thank you so much for making this for making this video. 🙏 You’re saving lives
Thank you for that remedy. I did not know that it had a remedy, this information is gold! Thank you so much for sharing it😁😁😁
Wow glad I came across your channel, this was seriously important!
I Love how you added Proverbs to it
Thank you this clear and thorough PSA!!! I did touch a plant that looked like this prior to my breakout on my hands this year!!!!!!!!! I just got a video on YT about this a couple of days ago and am furious that PA has never told me about it in all my 45 years! Im constantly getting poison and no one seems to care to remove it from their property nor public lands even in the cityscape...
Wow, thank you for sharing this! I was not aware that this very close look-alike plant is so deadly. My daughter and I love to pick Queen Anne’s lace. I will show this to her, and we will be more careful!
Picked this many times to add with wildflower bouquets. I too, just called it Queen Anne's Lace. I knew wild carrot was similar, but NOW I know how to properly identify! ty!
At first glance it looks like Yarrow. I just got property and an app to identify what's here. I'm so new to this, I didn't even think about a plant being so poisoness it could kill. Thank you very much for this life saving video!!
I had a plant which looked like this growing in my garden when i bought my first house 25 years ago. I used to use it in flower arrangements. I think it came up and bloomed a second year, but never again. I've never seen it anywhere again, other than on TH-cam. I live in Australia. 🇦🇺
This is probably the least dangerous plant on Australia lol
God Bless You Sir for sharing this CRITICLE info with people. Ive heard of poison hemlock but not water hemlock and didnt know what it looked like or the damaging affects it can have, NOW I KNOW. God Bless and protect you and yours Always !!!
Great video! Thanks for sharing the knowledge!
Thanks, and you are welcome.
Short, sweet, clear and informative. That's the way it ought to be. Thank you. I'm stocking activated charcoal.
It is good to have.
Thank you so much for pointing out this dangerous plant. I have shared this video with people I care about. I don’t know if I have encountered this plant before because it looks so harmless, who would pay it any attention! I have gotten rashes before and don’t know what I brushed up against. We have poison ivy in the area, which no matter how hard I try, I can’t distinguish it from other harmless weeds.
Thanks great info to know. Here in our area of West Texas, we have one bad plant called Death Cama. During it's early growth, looks like a long green onion. The leaves are not round but v shaped and is quite toxic. Smells like and onion and i believe it has a bulb shaped root. I picked it once and brought it in then decided to look it up. Thank God I had an ounce of training to not sample before looking it up. Anyways, you might find a good video to do with this one. L8R
Good thing you did look it up. Thanks for the suggestion.
Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge by keeping folk in the know and safe!
(It reminds me of elderflower. Don't think we have water hemlock here in Scotland).
So interesting. Keep up the good work 💯🙂
I grew up familiar with gueen ann's lace, but only found out this year that poison hemlock looks almost alike it also called wild carrot. Queen Ann has hairy legs. I thank you for that info. Great video.
Well I have learned something new today,thankyou.
This also grows in England. I wonder why we dont hear much about this,also are people's immune systems getting weaker??..
I have been around this stuff,as a kid,and I don't remember getting affected. I just done a quick Google search. I am shocked. Right i am going to pick my jaw up off the floor & carry on watching..
Thanks for educating us,appreciate it. Stay safe out there & have a blessed day,xx
I am so happy I found this video! I have been wondering what the Queen Ann’s Lace look alike is called. I knew not to touch it, then I recalled that QAL has a circle in the middle of the flower. Water Hemlock looks so pretty and benign. Ha! This video may just have saved me from serious illness. Thank you! X 1000
Great information , thank you for making a video about this hazard. I think I have seen this in the area Iam living in.
Thanks for this video, there's quite a few poisonous plants out there, Foxglove can even be bought in some garden centers in UK, its beautiful but poisonous too. Maybe do a video on poisonous plants would be good.
Thank you for giving me knowledge of these easy to find poisons.
I remember a few years back I almost ended up a statistic by mistaking water hemlock with wild mint. They smell similar. In Colorado, mint can grow big, and grows generally in the same area as water hemlock. I harvested some leaves and dried it at home and was going to make a wild mint tea. My own laziness saved me as I pushed it off until the leaves became too dusty to make a tea.
Last month I saw this plant on a Lake Michigan beach and used a plant id app to prove to myself it was Queen Anne's lace. What a shock to learn it was water hemlock. Very helpful video.
Also knowing where these things grow is also key also knowing what time of year they bloom is also extremely important
Also, it grows in pretty much all of North America. Also, it doesn't bloom in winter. Also my name is Moist. Also, I like sheep. Also saying also a lot also adds to the benefits of writing also.
@@moist5717 🤣
Water Hemlocks generally prefer wet locations across North America, Europe, and Asia. Water Hemlock isn't one plant but a collection of related plants that comprise the Cicuta genus. All Water Hemlocks are extremely poisonous and contain cicutoxin.
We have tons of Water Hemlock and Poison Hemlock all over the woods in Alaska, especially near creeks and lagoons. Especially in South Central Alaska.
Is it in Wasilla wooded areas?
Wow as I was growing up walking through field and cow pastures I'd pull up wild carrots and smell there roots, as I thought that's what they were. I don't ever remember trying it. This information should be well known in school and elsewhere.
Very well explained,and most interesting. Love the verse from Proverbs in the video also.
Very dangerous up here in northern BC. A farmer we know lost 7 cows a few years ago to it.
Wow that is tough.
Thank you for the warning, from Kamloops.
We have imported this plant into Austria as well and it's spreading quickly!
Being from a huge congested city and moving to the country, I heard this was poison so before I decided to ever touch it I decided to leave it, I have a whole lot to learn about safe wild edibles, thank you for this video it really cleared up my question on this plant, it’s growing absolutely all over my property, any idea how to get rid of this or at least cut it back with out poisoning my yard?
Are you sure it is hemlock, purplish smooth stems? I have similar plants on my property, but not hemlock. Hubby happened to ask about it a few weeks ago and we walked around our property and I pointed out the difference so he would know. I have also urged him to always have work gloves with him and not touch any plant with bare hands.
@@TheWirdbird I have similar plants and cut them back and poured boiling water on the stumps. Then I poured some vinegar on. They are coming back now, three months later but I plan to repeat the process. If you whack them a couple of times the roots die. Here I was worried that it was the Chinese strain, which can grow about seven feet tall and has eight foot deep roots, and is toxic. Now after this video, I know they are “ just” water hemlock. Bye, bye, water hemlock.
Maybe salt,and vinegar.
I agee
...not sure if it works on this, but I've killed quite a few plants with fermented urine. 👍😲🤗 )0(
Yup! I'm going to be careful this summer in the yard from now on!
We have activated charcoal pills in both our cars and every single time we eat anything we forage we also take the pills.
Helps a lot with mushroom farts too.
It's cheap stuff, if you're going to forage no reason not to have it.
Interesting 🤔
How horrible!! Thank you for posting this. I learned so much.
Back in the 70's, I used to use Queen of The Meadow, or Wild Carrot, for kidney infections; it worked really great, but then herbal stores stopped carrying itn and I moved to the desert. I guess maybe this is the reason it can no longer be found in stores; it's too easily confused with these deadly look-alikes.
I had no idea this could be found in every state. Good to know.
The reason you can't find good medicine in stores is because they profit more off sick people.
Wild carrot (Daucus carota) stems are hairy, water hemlock, and hemlock isn’t.
Wild carrot also known as Bird’s nest, Bishop’s lace Queen Anne’s lace in North America. Daucus carota also has a very small dark center. It’s also used to colour butter, which apparently they think is necessary, I don’t.
Great advice never heard of this Thanks for sharing
Got painful blisters on hand after hiking on Mt Juneau , Alaska. Brushed by one of these. Had no clue.
Yes - same here only in the Mat-Su valley- it burns like crazy.
Great video. Very informative.
we were taught as children when very young about the hemlocks back in the 1940s. and the other thing I can remember was wild watercress to wash it well as it may have liver fluke wilts UK.
Crazy how close it resembles Queens Ann Lace! I will have to keep a closer eye from now on.
They were talking about this plant this morning on the ch.4 news in Dallas .it was spotted at white rock lake.
Bro out here saving lives with knowledge. Mad respect.
I just discovered wild carrot (ID’d from Picture This app) but it happens to be growing near Poison Hemlock, tall stiff stems, which I ID’d the same way. Different pictures of the wild carrot and it confirms wild carrot, but I did not know to check the stem. I didn’t know what to do about the poison hemlock, it was literally 4 feet tall and really pretty blooms, but when I was down there yesterday, it’s growing along the roadside in the country it was all dead and I wondered if maybe the county road people sprayed it or I couldn’t understand it l, and I wasn’t sure what to do about it because it’s poisonous. I didn’t wanna be handling it but I wanted to get rid of it. So I’m just very fortunate I happen to see this video and thanks so much! Also would love to know what editing program you use because I love your graphics. Subbed and 👍🏻
Thank you. I use Final Cut Pro and use some of the add one by Motion VFX for graphics.
I live near Marin- Sonoma California and this plant is abundant in the rural areas. It looks a lot like yarrow- or queens Ann lace…even elderberry. Lots of hemlock and cows on the west coast. Thanks-
Oh my goodness I had these out in my pasture & one grew in a flower bed because my friend told me it was Oueen And Lace. I did end up getting rid of it because after being around it I got some itching welts all over the arm touched it. Also the wisteria.but I use long sleeves & gloves now.
Have this on our ranch
Thanks for this review.
Good data! I didn't know water hemlock looked similar to queen ann's lace!
Great video! Thank you!
Wow… best to avoid it all together and even forget about wild carrots, me thinks. It would also be advisable to have activated charcoal on hand as well.
Again, thank you so very much for your awesome videos. Subscribed.
I love the flowers and often temped to pick them up for my flower arrangement, didnt know it is toxic.
Cicuta maculata grows here in CT. I've seen it. It has magenta spots and streaks on the stem and likes moist situations, often on the edges of wetlands. QAL likes dryer sunnier habitats.
Well, I’m glad I listened to this video! When I was a kid I did gnaw on wild carrot root (was very chewy so I didn’t like it) and knew nothing about poison hemlock.😮
Fortunately I never encountered Hemlock!
OMG! I was cultivating this! Thank you!
