RE: BEWARE - These plants can KILL you!
Thank you for this post! I was just researching it due to a recent scare where a young girl had a dramatic seizure and respiratory failure after spending time down by our creek. We know we have hemlock here and thought she may have touched poison hemlock. Even TOUCHING it can cause these symptoms. Very scary. And it made us aware that we really have to be educated on all the plants here on this raw land we are trying to tame and put our homestead on.
Pleasure, it was very interesting for me to research it. Hope the girl was ok?
Yes, a true miracle! But, we still are not 100% about the plant. We've brought it into different experts, but in the end I think we have to send the plant in for analysis whether the toxin is present or not.
