Can You ID This Plant Which Made My Dog Sick?
Comments (3)I'm not 100% certain, because the photo is a little fuzzy, but I'm pretty sure your plant is Polygonum pensylvanicum. You can do an online search for it to see if it matches what you have. To my knowledge, it's not toxic, but of course anything dogs eat outside their normal diet can make them sick to their stomach, or perhaps aggravate allergies that aren't apparent otherwise. As a former human companion of a mini schnauzer ( no one really owns them, lol), I have to agree - who knows what they are thinking :-). Hope she is doing better....See MoreCan you ID this plant?
Comments (2)It could be Sedum tetractinum 'Coral Reef'; but it is quite etiolated. Any succulent will do best in good light, most like quite a few hours of direct sunshine. If my plant, I would cut off all long stems, pull off few lowest leaves; let it callus for few hrs-a day; and finally pot into better mix (can't tell for sure what yours is like, but looks dense. Mixing in lots of sifted perlite - like 50% of total volume - would help). Existing plant needs more light and will continue growing leggy unless you change that. Best if grown outdoors...depending where you are located, it may be hardy...slowly acclimatize to better light, otherwise it will burn....See MoreCan you ID this plant?
Comments (2)Jacqueline, the photo was too blurry to get a close look at the leaves and flowers. If you can get a better close up, that would be great. If you post this question on the Name That Plant Forum, you should get a quick answer providing you submit a better close up. :)...See MoreCan you ID this plant?
Comments (20)I was thinking that probably some greedy poor natives are digging up those beautiful plants and selling them on ebay. Just like the same kind of people that are collecting every last native ginseng plant in the south over here. Just like feathers in British hats nearly wiped out the most gorgeous birds in the world. It's such a shame that so many blind people have no reverence for nature at all. I'm sure Sudan would agree with me. He was the last living African male Northern White Rhino in the world. And he died in May. All attempts to bring back the species have failed. They are probably gone forever. While rich Chinese gloat to their friends about their rare horn potion that they use for an erection. ( myth) They will reap what they sow.https://youtu.be/ALPwujKU4bs...See Morekarateoman1
