Some landscaping stalwarts (including some tropical plants) are

grown for their flowers, but others are grown for their vegetation.

We sometimes refer to them as foliage plants.

Some of the plant specimens poisonous to dogs that follow are

also known for having large leaves, such as castor beans and

the aptly-named "elephant ears."

 By contrast, bird of paradise and angel's trumpet are grown

for their sensational blossoms. Meanwhile,

aloe vera may be toxic for your puppy,

but it is found in many skin-care products for humans.

As for snake lily, this unusual specimen is in a class all by itself:

1. Castor bean (Ricinus communis)
2. Elephant ears (Colocasia)
3. Aloe vera
4. Bird of paradise (Strelitzia reginae)
5. Angel's trumpet (Brugmansia)
6. Snake lily (Amorphophallus konjac)

As if weeds did not already give us fits while trying to control them,

there are also some weeds that are poisonous to dogs. 

Yellow dock has an upside: namely,

its leaves can be crushed to create a salve for stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) burns.

Meanwhile, Mayapple, baneberry, bloodroot,

and jack-in-the-pulpit have a place in wildflower gardens, and mistletoe is,

of course, a classic for Christmas decorating,

as is another poisonous plant, the poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima):

1. Yellow dock (Rumex crispus)
2. Bittersweet nightshade (Solanum dulcamara)
3. Creeping Charlie (Glechoma hederacea)
4. Mayapple (Podophyllum peltatum)
5. Baneberry (Actaea)
6. Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis)
7. Jack-in-the-pulpit (Arisaema triphyllum)
8. Mistletoe (Viscum album)

If you know you have plants poisonous to dogs growing in your yard,

it is a good idea to keep your dog from accessing them,

perhaps via some fencing. But seedlings (especially of weeds)

can sprout up very quickly, so also be sure to monitor the grounds

within the fencing to ensure that it remains free of toxic intruders.

If your dog becomes ill and you suspect that it has eaten one of these poisonous plants,

contact your veterinarian immediately if you wish to be on the safe side.

熱帶植物

一些景觀美化愛好者喜歡種植熱帶植物是因為它們的花,也有些是因為可以當作葉子.

有時候我們會稱它為觀葉植物.有些對狗有毒的植物,也是有很大片的葉子,

例如蓖麻和恰如其名的大葉秋海棠.相對而言,

天堂鳥和大花曼陀羅就是因為其令人驚豔的花而種植的.

另外,蘆薈對狗也是有毒的,不過對人們而言是種護膚產品.

至於蛇百合,此種類本身就分成一類.

1. 蓖麻(Ricinus communis)
2. 竽(Colocasia)
3. 蘆薈
4. 天堂鳥(Strelitzia reginae)
5. 大花曼陀羅(Brugmansia)
6. 蛇百合(Amorphophallus konjac)

野草和其他野生植物

對於我們而言,野草不容易防範,不過有些野草也是有毒的.皺葉酸模有個優點,將其葉子搗碎能

使異株蕁麻燒傷.美洲鬼臼,類葉升痲,血根草,三葉天南星如被歸類為野生花卉.

當然懈寄生是種聖誕裝飾物,另一種聖誕裝飾物也有毒的則是聖誕紅.

如果你知道你家的庭院裡的植物對毛小孩有害,最理想的方式是不要讓毛小孩接近它.

但是有些種子發芽很快(特別是野草)所以要仔細檢查靠近圍籬的地面,以確保沒有有毒植物.

如果你的毛小孩生病了,且你懷疑牠誤食有毒植物,請盡快聯絡獸醫檢查.
