If you love growing decorative plants, then you have to be careful with what you grow, because some of these plants can be quite harmful.
For instance, if you have small kids or pets, then you should be careful with plants that have poisonous berries.
Here are a few examples of these beautiful, but potentially dangerous plants.
Deadly Nightshade (Belladonna)
These berries are shiny and dark, resembling small cherries.
However, they contain a poisonous substance that can be dangerous if consumed.
Pokeweed Berries
Pokeweed berries are dark purple and look like grapes.
They grow in clusters and can be mistaken for edible fruits, but they are toxic and should not be eaten.
Doll's Eyes (White Baneberry)
These berries have a unique appearance, resembling small white eyeballs with a black dot in the center.
Despite their intriguing look, they are toxic and should be avoided.
Yew Berries
Yew berries are bright red and have a fleshy outer covering.
They may look tempting, but the seeds within the berries contain a hazardous substance.
