It occurs to me that some seemingly unassuming plants might just be the last thing you touch, smell, taste, etc. Little did I know that some common plants are HIGHLY TOXIC to humans as well as animals/livestock/etc. In doing some research in this arena, I found some helpful sites.
Here are some links to sites with info on toxic plants.

So, If you have children, pets or other creatures that may accidentally encounter these plants, keep your eyes on them and make sure they know what they can and can not stick in their mouths.
