I do have one additional piece of advice re: keeping children safe: Don't interplant poisonous plants with edibles if you let your children graze in the yard, and watch out for poisonous weeds. My son accidentally got a bit of bindweed once, because it had infiltrated our mint patch. Fortunately it wasn't serious, but it made me more careful about weeding in that area.Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14340315090793740760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7489236236876359231.post-31110444341330427682008-03-17T14:38:00.000-06:002008-03-17T14:38:00.000-06:00Hi Victoria - Just thought I'd let you know Robin ...Hi Victoria - Just thought I'd let you know Robin and I have found a place to have a vegie garden this year!

There are many other species of plants that can cause allergic reactions, rashes and skin and mouth lesions in dogs if the animal is exposed to the plants at certain times in the plants growth. Often the either the leaves, flower or bark is poisonous but perhaps not all three. For example, grape vines themselves are not poisonous to dogs but the grapes can be extremely toxic.<BR/>If you believe that your dog has ingested a poisonous plant, or any type of plant, and is exhibiting signs of pain, nervous problems, salivating, drooling, vomiting or diarrhea immediately contact your vet and have the dog examined. Be sure to bring the plant in with you to help the vet identify the poison that was consumed."<BR/>Source: http://www.articlecity.com/articles/pets_and_animals/article_1003.shtmlVictoria Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16014235737941054206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7489236236876359231.post-21626153236805573552008-03-17T10:30:00.000-06:002008-03-17T10:30:00.000-06:00Victoria - I have never heard of Aloe vera being a...Victoria - I have never heard of Aloe vera being a poisonous plant.
