WHICH IS THE MOST POISONOUS PLANT?

Have you ever wondered which is the most poisonous plant? The answer will surprise you!

The most poisonous plant in the world is the Castor Oil Plant, also known as Ricinus Communis. It's a small shrub that grows in tropical areas around the world. The seeds of the Castor Oil Plant contain a toxic substance called ricin. Ricin is so powerful that it can kill an adult in just a few hours.

But don't worry - the Castor Oil Plant is not found in most gardens. It's not easy to find and it's not used in food or medicine. The plant you're more likely to find in your garden is the Foxglove. Foxglove is a pretty flower that grows in Europe and North America. The leaves and flowers of the Foxglove contain a chemical called Digitalis. If eaten in high doses, Digitalis can be very dangerous.

So remember, the most poisonous plant in the world is the Castor Oil Plant, but the plant you're likely to find in your garden is the Foxglove. Be careful when you're out and about and always wear gloves when handling these plants.
