Wild carrot

Daucus carota
In the United States: Naturalized · also called Queen Anne's lace

Attracts honey bees and other pollinators to its flat white umbels for nectar and pollen in mid to late summer. A biennial that blooms in its second year and readily self-seeds in open, disturbed ground; not a major honey-flow plant but supports foraging throughout its bloom period.
