From Flora of Indiana (1940) by Charles C. Deam
Infrequent to common in all parts of the state but rarely found in a prairie habitat. The flowers vary in color from white to yellow; 11 of my 33 specimens have one or more purple flowers in the inflorescence; rarely there is an inflorescence with rose colored flowers. Millspaugh has named the rose colored form, forma rosea. Farwell calls the form without purple flowers, forma epurpurata. (See Grier. Variation in the flower of the wild carrot. Torreya 22: 64-66. 1922.) Often called Queen Anne's-lace.

Indiana Coefficient of Conservatism: C = null, non-native

Wetland Indicator Status: UPL
