when I was in China, the guide called Queen Annes Lace -- Cloud flowers.

Since we were all learning each others culture, I explained why we called them QAL and when we found a PC we looked up the pix of the queens collar. Also have you looked closely at the flowers to find the tiny dark purple center?? Each tiny flowerette is perfection.
I love their name Cloud flower
