Did you know one detail that distinguishes water hemlock (Cicuta maculata) from wild carrot (Daucus carota) is the presence of a lack of rows of spines on the seeds?

It's basically a secret beacon that you can use to find MORE wild pawpaw fruit next year!

I haven’t seen many other people talk about this, but it is so important for being able to find wild pawpaws consistently.
