No not Datura Judith, i try not to grow v. poisonous stuff because of
the dogs


Well, we had dogs in Africa (many people did and do), thorn-apple
and even more poisonous plants grow everywhere, and I have never
heard of any killing themselves that way.


Of course, if you specialise in the Palin breed of pit bulls, I
can easily understand your concern :-)


No I just don't grow Euphorbia and stuff. Most things in excess will be
poisonous but some, especially the touch ones I just avoid. Mind you
Juniper always gives me tingling skin on my hands so maybe I should
consider the once avoided plants? I gave away a datura grown from seed
plus a, oh I forget, something like Datura but rarer.............

Janet, I too cannot touch Juniper!!!! I get a very fine rash wherever
it touches me.
