    There are so many plants in the wild that are poisonous that you really have to be careful. I always taught my children never to put anything in their mouths before checking with me first. Even touching some plants can cause serious skin irritations so it's better to be safe than sorry and leave wild flowers and berries alone if you are at all unsure.

    Those are some very pretty flowers. It's amazing how many are in my garden.
