just seen these on a pdf about poisonous plants.
"groundsel" Senecio vulgaris
says flowers and leaves are toxic.
there is plenty of this on the farm here. its definitely here and there in a few hay bales.
"common sorrel" Rumex acetosa
doesn't specify which part is toxic, pictured is seed head though.
this is around the yard. I don't know if I have fed this specifically in the past, but if I had then it would have been the leaves.
"dock sorrel" Rumex spp
says leaves toxic if fed in high quantities.
definitely have this here where it doesn't get mowed. if I remember correctly the leaves are one that tend to give annoying faux papercut feeling if you walk through it. don't know that I would want to bother gathering this anyway even in small quantities.
marigold Tagetes spp
says all species may cause skin irritations.
I could have swore I read that someone fed some marigolds off a few yard plants? I could be wrong.. Maybe it is only ok in very small amounts..?
yarrow Achillea millefolium
says may cause skin irritations.
really?? I thought this was a good herb? maybe it was just humans... hmm..
