1. Is it poisonous?According to some relevant literature, it is toxic. However, its toxicity is relatively mild, and some people do not react particularly strongly to it. Its poison is not in the smell it emits, but in the fluids in its body. It is reported that the main components of its juice include calcium oxalate and gum, which may contain toxic ingredients. However, there is no problem if it is only used for viewing purposes and not eaten accidentally, so many people choose to place it indoors. Generally speaking, greater reactions and symptoms will occur after taking large amounts. Its toxicity is also the main reason why it can be used as a medicine. The principle behind its use in treating diseases is "fighting poison with poison". In fact, some varieties of the plant are slightly toxic, not just the purple-leafed plant. 2. Can cats be touched?There is no problem with simply touching it, but because cats are ignorant, they will inevitably bite the leaves out of curiosity after touching it, so generally speaking, it is better not to let them touch it to avoid accidents. In addition to cats, other small pets must also be paid attention to and should not be allowed to touch. The most important thing is children. Children who don’t know any better like to put anything into their mouths. This must be avoided when growing purple-leafed hanging bamboo plum. |
