For preparing aloe, I have seen people peel the leaves, (I use a potato peeler) and you take the gel and soak it in cold cold water. You’ll see it turn yellow and you’ll want to repeat that process until the water is clear. I have only ever used it for topical purposes and it worked so much better for my sunburns than Alocaine. I would not suggest consuming it unless you really know for certain what you’re doing. Not all Aloe plants are equal!!!

The lilly in the valley is kinda an issue here around, considering that it grows here in the forests often along side by side with wild garlic, and there are people gathering the latter. The thing is that the leaves look pretty much similar so the only safe way to differentiate them is by smell, meaning if it doesn't smell like garlic you better not eat it.

I knew about some of these & am glad to hear the rest! Oleanders are planted heavily in landscaping in both Florida & Arizona, so I'm well aware of them! (I'm sure they grow in a lot of places, incl South Georgia & the Carolinas, but I've never been at many of them long enough to know how wide spread! A funny-ish story: I read a novel a few years ago where someone picked up a stick to roast his hot dog on & he died. The stick was from an oleander that had been pruned. IDK if that ever happened in true life (but she got the idea from somewhere!), but it's good to know what kind of wood you're cooking with!

@@SheffieldMadePlantsyes, very! I came back to add some info for your viewers (you probably know it already) as I'm re-watching this, & before I forget. Cardiac glycosides are used as heart medications. The most known is probably digitalis from the foxglove plant. One brand name here in the States is Digoxin. I gave it once to a dying man & naturally had to stay until he died. The med caused his heart to beat LONG after respiration stopped! The toxin in oleander is similar. To pronounce triterpenoid saponins (FYI, this is Southern US English. IDK how it's said elsewhere): try-turp'-eh-noid sap-ō-nins. Hope that helps! (I'm a nurse AND a word nerd! 😁) EDIT: one last word, bufadienolide (I had to Google this one & I had it WRONG!) is pronounced byu-fă-dī--ĕn'-ō-līde. (I still can't understand the IPA symbols! How can a 0 with a line through it "sound" like th as in "there"? That's the only one I've figured out, but I don't get where it came from!!)

I was lucky neither my son nor my dog at the time, ate my plants. My son wasn't a child that put everything in his mouth, didn't even like a soother. The only one I worried about was the string of pearls because they really looked like peas and they would fall off and both the dog and my son ate peas. The other one I really wanted was a Datura for outside it has the most beautiful huge white flowers and you can collect the seeds, but I wasn't comfortable with the death part if anyone put some in their mouth. So I passed on that one. Funny, I still look up how toxic the plants are and I know I'm not going to eat them. If you make mrs. Sheffield mad do check the peas in your plate. Don't worry they're supposedly only uncomfortable, not deadly.

Another, w/ dark purple flowers, I think goes by Devil's Trumpet! A third, Jimson Weed, readily grows wild here & teens (prob adults, too) have died by "experimenting" w/ Jimson Weed , trying to get an LSD-like "trip"! -- Bloo.

Pretty much everything in the aroid/arum family are full of calcium oxalate, which is unfortunate since that's probably far and away the most popular houseplant family except for maybe cacti. This includes Diffienbachia, which got the name "dumb cane" because eating it will irritate the membranes in your mouth and throat badly enough that you won't be able to talk for a while. Beyond that, plants in the same genus/family as each other usually have similar toxicity properties. The Crown of Thorns euphorbia doesn't look very appetizing but poinsettia and a bunch of other things are in the same genus, which the small mammals in your house are a lot more likely to attempt to eat.

You've overlooked the common potato fruit that looks like tomatos. I've never tried them but I'm told they're quite toxic. Incidentally, I remember when you used to be able to buy potato flavored crisp made from potatoes. Nowadays most of what you can buy are different flavors -- some of them, pretty awful, and some them it's like eating glass. I suppose if they can add a flavour to broken up light bulbs they can pretty much achieve the same results. Anyway, interesting video.

You've probably heard this a zillion times already by now, but in case you haven't: Dumb Cane got that name b/c when it's ingested, the ulcers you mentioned & the mouth/throat pain inhibit speaking, thus Dumb (unable to speak) Cane (b/c it has a bamboo-ey looking stem/trunk.

Plants can't run away from herbivores. Their defense is oxalates. I encourage you to read the book toxic superfoods by Sally K Norton.

You did not mention the effects the cactus (@ 8:54) has when ingested.

This is wonderful timing as I've just decided to get a cat after moving in February and I'm trying to figure which plants need to be hidden away from where the kitty can get to them! Thank you for the informative and as-ever hilarious video!

Perfect! 😁

Well don’t hide them away, and don’t put them on high shelves. The cat will figure it out. Teach your cat to stay away from your plants. I did it for 20 years. Easy as pie

@tompatchak8706 yes, ideally thats what I want, but learning takes time and im a first time pet owner so I dont want to risk them getting into anything that could hurt them. I have a room that has to be cat-free anyway, so I'll just keep them in there, there's plenty of light so they can continue to thrive 😉

I was expecting Adenium obesum (desert rose) to hit the #1 spot, those things aren't to be messed with. How common they are/aren't might depend on where in the world you live though. Oleander was a good choice too. Begonias are also in the oxalate crystal club. Not sure on the concentration or anything, but I keep them away from my cat just in case.

I'm not a goat to eat my home plants 🙂 Though high places, electricity and water are also very dangerous. Streets are full of possible death. How awful to live! 😃 Parents always have to watch after the children. Thanks god plants dont attack us. 😁
