Queen Anne's Lace........weed or beauty? I guess it's in the eye of the beholder, but I happen to think they are very beautiful . If you drive along the country roads in the spring you will see thousands of these beauties swaying in the wind. When hosting a party, I always seen to run out of $ when it comes to the flowers, but I would rather have Queen Anne's Lace than Roses. I have tried many times to move these into my yard, with no success. I have since given up transplanting them and I just enjoy them on the side of the road, and in buckets and vases. They seem to make a statement even though they are so simple. My mother always gathered them and let us choose the different color food coloring. And in the morning, we would have red centered Queen Anne's Lace.
