Some flowers are undeniably beautiful, but some are really not suitable for long-term propagation indoors, or for being kept indoors at all, as some flowers can have adverse effects on human health. Below, the editor introduces flowers that are not suitable for long-term cultivation or placement indoors. I hope everyone likes it.

Datura

Datura is like an invisible killer; do not keep it at home. The whole plant is toxic. For one, the fruit and seeds are highly toxic, and for another, the young leaves are too. Even the leaves after air-drying still contain toxicity. Its flowers are also an anesthetic. After eating them, they make people excited and cause hallucinations. Excessive consumption will damage the nerve center and seriously threaten life.

Lantana

Lantana is grown in South China regions such as Guangdong, Hainan, Fujian, Taiwan, China, and Guangxi, and belongs to wild flowers. The plant itself is non-toxic and harmless, but its flowers, leaves and unripe fruits are toxic. If eaten, it will cause serious consequences such as chronic liver poisoning, coma, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, jaundice, and shortness of breath.

Corn poppy


The beauty of the beautiful woman is beautiful, and its legend is even more shocking, but its whole plant is toxic. It belongs to the Poppy family, and the toxicity of its fruit is more serious. Ingestion can cause disorders of the brain's nervous system, and severe life and health may be threatened.

Oleander


Oleander can be said to contain toxicity in all its parts. The white sap it secretes can cause symptoms such as vomiting, loss of consciousness, diarrhea, and breathing disorders. In severe cases, it may endanger health and life. In particular, when oleander leaves are burned, the smoke produced is also highly toxic.

Geranium

Geranium, also known as hydrangea, is a relatively good flower for decorating windowsills and corners, but when exposed to the human body, the substances it emits can cause itching. If you eat the stems of hydrangea, it will cause urgency to urinate, pain, diarrhea, breathing problems, vomiting, blood in the stool, and so on.

Narcissus


Daffodils have been cultivated and appreciated for more than a thousand years, and indoors they can make people feel warm and quiet. But its bulb (scale) contains lycorine. Its flowers, branches and leaves are all toxic. When the juice splashes onto the skin, the skin will quickly turn red and swell. After poisoning, it will cause abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting. Its floral fragrance will also cause nervous system disorders, and long-term inhalation of its fragrance will make you dizzy; inhaling it before bed is even more serious.

Poinsettia


Poinsettia has a relatively long flowering period, and its flowering time is only during Christmas and the Spring Festival. It can be used to decorate a room, which can add a festive atmosphere, but it cannot be kept indoors for a long time because it releases harmful substances that are harmful to the human body. If the milky sap it secretes is slightly and accidentally exposed to the skin, this may cause an allergic reaction, which will cause the skin to quickly turn red and swell. In severe cases, it will ulcerate; if the stems and leaves are mistakenly eaten, it will cause abdominal pain and vomiting, and if severe, it can even be fatal.
