Money tree is said to be poisonousIt has been reported that the money tree is a highly poisonous plant. Rumor has it that no animals will approach it, and plants growing around the money tree will wither and die. If its leaf juice gets on the skin, it will cause swelling of the facial features. Therefore, the report warns that if the money tree is found growing in the same pot as edible herbs, it should be refused for medicinal or edible use; people who have money trees at home should be careful when handling their soil. At this point, the rumor that the money tree is poisonous has spread widely, but is there any scientific basis for it? Is the money tree really that scary? Is the amount of money poisonous?Su Mingzhi, a lecturer in the environmental studies program at Tainan Community University, believes that the statement is too alarmist. He said that the money tree itself contains alkaloids. Although some people with sensitive constitutions may experience irritation to the skin and mucous membranes after touching it, the prerequisite for the above situation to occur is to destroy the plant and come into contact with the juice. Can money trees be placed indoors?Although the money tree belongs to the Araceae family, not all Araceae plants are poisonous, and the money tree is not as poisonous as rumored. In addition, the money tree is a very popular large indoor bonsai plant, which is often placed in spacious living rooms, study rooms, etc. It has an exotic atmosphere, is elegant and simple, and has a high ornamental value. To sum up, the money tree will only cause certain irritation to the skin and cannot be considered a poisonous plant. It can be grown indoors and has ornamental value. |
