Carrots

This is a picture of one of my carrots that is going to seed. It is of the umbel (from the word "umbrella") family, as you can see. This family includes cumin, parsley, coriander or cilantro, dill, caraway, fennel, parsnip, celery, Queen Anne's Lace, and dill--all having the same type of flowers. Hemlock is also of this family, but it's not intentionally eaten!
