| Very similar plants. The plant in the center foreground w/yellow flowers and ribbed stems is wild parsnip. Hemlock has a smooth white stem with purple blotches, and white flowers. The plant in the front lower left is hemlock, and as near as I can tell, so are the rest of the background plants. Hemlock has always grown around here (SC IL) in wet, non crop areas. I personally haven't noticed a recent proliferation of it, though. | |
