Thanks, Kent. Now we're good to go.

Dave, this will require some of your magic. All of the photos, comments, and general plant information on this page (Daucus carota) apply to Queen Anne's Lace, so all that needs to be done is to strip the page of its parent plant status and replace "Carrot" with "Queen Anne's Lace" as the common name:

Queen Anne's Lace (Daucus carota)

The genus and species designation for all of the 200+ Daucus cultivars now listed as Daucus carota should be changed to Daucus carota subsp. sativus, and this entry should be the parent plant for carrots:

Carrots (Daucus carota var. sativus)

All of my carrots come from the supermarket, so I'd rather leave the plant information content of the parent entry to someone else. Smiling

Also, all of the information that was previousy added from the parent plant entry to the cultivar entries probably should be removed. I suspect it applies only to Queen Anne's Lace, and not to carrots.
