Queen Anne's Lace

Art Nouveau botanical damask featuring stylized floral clusters of Queen Anne's Lace (Daucus carota) flowers. This member of the wild carrot family is very nostalgic for me, as I grew up loving the flowers. Now that I'm older, I don't grow this species in my garden (it's not native) I grow golden alexanders instead, as both species are important host plants for the Eastern Black Swallowtail butterfly, but I still love the blooms, so I made myself a design I could enjoy guilt free.
