Queen anne lace (Daucus carrota), which you show off nicely in your photograph, is such a great one to feature. It is a common "weed" so it is available to everyone. Reminding us that beauty is everywhere. I can sit and stare at the intricate blossom for a very long time. The seed head has an interesting sculptural form and would be nice in flower arrangements.

Yes, I’m very fond of it too and love its intricate design. The whole plant is edible/medicinal but I have read the blossoms can be prepared like squash blossoms
