    Overall rating: 3.2 / 5 from 5 reviews.

    The description says Ammi majus (the Latin name for this product) is a native North American wildflower- FALSE. IT IS AN INVASIVE NONNATIVE FROM EUROPE. shame on you for perpetuating the spread of a destructive, alien species, and spreading incorrect information. Absolutely will NEVER purchase ANYTHING from a company so willing to LIE to make a PROFIT at the cost of our ecosystems. Deplorable. Not sure how you sleep at night.

    If you're like most people, you think the roadside weed, Queen Anne's Lace, is pretty, but you may hear it's invasive, and you bet it is. It's a weed in all 50 states. But if you want the same look without the permanent plants of QAL, plant this one. It looks very much the same, but is an annual, so will be dead and gone next year. This is the one florists use, and a snap to grow.
