Default Moonflower bush (Datura)

Billy expounded:

Datura usually = toxic.


Datura = beautiful. Just don't eat the leaves or seed pods.

How many plants in our gardens are poisonous? Tomato leaves are
toxic, so are potatoes. Foxgloves are very dangerous, especially for
anyone with a heart condition. Monkshood. There are many. Watch
your children, educate them, make sure they don't put things in their
mouths they shouldn't, and grow beautiful plants.
