ABC Wednesday of Photodito

This foxglove flower looks very nice and lovely, but behind the elegant looking plant lays a real danger. Every part of the Foxglove plant is poisonous, so if you have inquisitive little kids or pets who are inclined to chew, this is not an appropriate plant for the garden. Even touching foxgloves can cause rashes and headaches.
