    Are you ordering fresh flowers?

    Queen Anne's Lace is actually a weed.

    Yep. They are associated with carrots, actually. They smell like carrots. lol. They're still lovely(imo), but they can cause allergies so be cautious.

    Baby's breath is just loose flowers, as in Pic 1, while Queen Annes Lace kind of comes in a cluster.

    The thing w/ baby's breath is that there are commonly 2 different types of baby's breath. you some of the buds that are actually large as in larger then a McDonalds straw hole and some that is as small as a ink pen tip... sorry for these images they happen to be right in front of me. lol also baby's breath can have an odor that is just horrible....price wise baby's breath is cheaper (usually), Misty blue is also another type of "filler flowers" most florist use as well. (my mom is a florist, just in case your wondering) : ) .... good luck
