| Is this pretty flower found in many backyards poisonous? |
It's that time of year when we want to spruce up our homes and sometimes that means bringing new foliage into our homes and gardens. Learn which plants are okay for little Fluffy to chew on and which ones would be harmful to her. You can visit the Animal Poison Control Center's webpage if you don't know the name of the plant you are concerned about. It lists plants in categories such as bulbs, ferns, house plants, lilies, etc, and gives you pictures to help figure out which plant you have. They also have pictures and descriptions of some plants listed below. It lists common signs your pet may exhibit if he/she has ingested the plant. Two more great websites are the CSU Toxic Plant Database, and the Cornell Database. Please visit these sites if you do not see the plant you are looking for in the list below. By the way, the morning glory pictured above is poisonous!
