The Manchineel Tree: Florida’s Deadliest Plant ☠️🌱

Описание: Ever wondered what the most dangerous plants in the world look like up close? Today we’re heading to the lush, shady paths of USF Botanical Gardens on a mission to find some of nature’s most beautiful — and most poisonous — plants.

In this episode, we track down the infamous manchineel tree, often called the most dangerous tree on Earth, along with other toxic botanical legends like water hemlock, brugmansia (angel’s trumpets), and the deceptively sweet-looking rosary pea.
Some of these plants can harm you if touched. Some are dangerous if inhaled. And some… well, let’s just say they have a long history in folklore, medicine, and crime stories.

🌿 In this video:
• Searching for the deadly manchineel
• The haunting beauty of angel’s trumpets
• Why rosary peas are as dangerous as they are pretty
• A look at water hemlock — one of North America’s most toxic plants
• How botanical gardens safely display poisonous species

This is your reminder that nature is magical, but not always friendly to humans.

⚠️ Important: This video is for education and curiosity only. Do not touch, ingest, or experiment with wild plants. Many toxic plants can cause serious injury or death.
