Myth: According to legend, Queen Anne, wife of King James I, challenged her lady’s-in-waiting to a contest to see who best could produce a piece of lace as beautiful as a carrot’s flower. No one could out-match the young queen. However, just as she finished, she accidentally pricked her finger with a needle, for which reason Queen Anne’s Lace has a single red flower right at the center.
Other Notes: The name Carrot is Celtic, and means red of color and Daucus from the Greek dais to burn, signifying its pungent and stimulating qualities
Omens: If brought into the house, snakes will follow it. In Yorkshire, this
is known as Mother Die, or Stepmother’s Blessing, since if it’s brought into the house, your mother will die.
