Resembles wild and cultivated carrots, parsley, celery and more.

I'll try to do a post on yarrow, I don't yet have a place I can get it in Texas. A neighbor has some I can see in her butterfly garden on her side yard, but she has refused me going back there to photograph. I'm not sure why. It's a shame because she also has some local milkweed I would like to take pics of. <br /><br />But yarrow is probably the safest part of the carrot/parsley family, so I'll try to get to it soon!HenoftheWoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05923905932330133554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2480056929337740687.post-26615172810647367932021-07-23T07:30:33.767-05:002021-07-23T07:30:33.767-05:00I received the email about your updated blog yeste...I received the email about your updated blog yesterday. I find all you write so helpful! I am an intermediate-level forager, and still do not eat wild carrot or use yarrow; I am not ready to "go there" with this category of plants yet. When I earn my plant identification "black belt", maybe. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. mene19https://www.blogger.com/profile/08163735220449916513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2480056929337740687.post-79224624188668868502021-04-22T17:00:21.938-05:002021-04-22T17:00:21.938-05:00I accidently ate a lot yesterday during lunch time...I accidently ate a lot yesterday during lunch time. It's in our front yard besides our garden. I thought it's wild carrots or celery. I had a little bit before but I ate a lot yesterday. 20 minutes later, I felt my eyelids were heavy. I thought maybe my blood sugar went too high because I didn't eat breakfast. 10 minutes later I had to go to my bedroom to rest. I couldn't walk by myself. My husband had to support me. While I was resting on my bed, I noticed I could't control my muscle, and I even couldn't open my mouth big like I was numbed by dentist. Then I noticed I had hard time to swallow the saliva. I was scared at that moment because I don't know if I will suffocate. Fortunately 30 minutes later my husband gave me some vinegar with a little bit water to drink. I threw up once. It didn't change that much. My husband also ate some, he got the same symptoms but a little better. We both had to put our finger into our throat to help the vomit. After five times vomiting, about five hours, we both started to feel better. We also drank some honey with water, and milk. We are blessed to escape this catastrophe. My kids also learned not to eat this plant from this.

In the southeast US there are golden alexanders in the zizia genus. Plants for the future suggests the flowers are edible. I think the foliage isn't as deeply dissected as parsley, thought.Elainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15530121207083476153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2480056929337740687.post-85605299866919815132019-02-19T21:05:42.294-06:002019-02-19T21:05:42.294-06:00Please keep in mind, I don't recommend new for...Please keep in mind, I don't recommend new foragers try any member of the carrot family. This post was designed to let everyone know how easy to mix up the poisonous members it is. But do keep a record of everything you find, and compare it to more books and blogs!

Beginning forager. Have IDed spurge and will remove. So far eating only henbit, cleaver, dandelion, and wood sorrel. Bought seeds for wild lettuce and lambs quarter (old acquaintance).
