Abstract
University extension profile of poison hemlock: lists Pimpinella anisum (anise) among the plants it is commonly confused with, and describes the smooth hollow stem with purple, brown or red spots and fine regular lines and a foul odor when crushed. Anchors anise (Pimpinella anisum) as a documented poison-hemlock look-alike and the purple-spotted stem test.
