Few plants are fatal to humans, but a number of common plants are toxic to a lesser extent.
Actually, the danger of plant poisoning is very small compared with other dangers in life. But as with all hazardous materials, safety must be practiced, especially with children. It's sometimes difficult for children to understand that we can eat one part of a plant but not other parts. For example, the leaves of potatoes, tomatoes, cherries and rhubarb are poisonous, but these vegetables and fruits are good to eat. Flowers of the deadly nightshade are attractive, but this plant should be eradicated.
