Re: Lethal Leaf Garry your Solanum pyracanthum does look very spiky but for me I would go with Aralia bipinnata another nice Solanum George

Re: Lethal Leaf Quite nice so far folks
 , but there's nothing more lethal than Ilex aquifolium 'Ferox argentea'. Not quite exotic I must admit.No pics from my side either, since I fear, I won't survive taking a shot, not even with a tele lens. Edit: I managed to post a link [at the risk of losing my life], that's all I can do for you. I can tell you, it's quite difficult to type, whilst bleeding all over the keyboard with my hands beeing completely bandaged .   https://davisla2.files.wordpress.com/20 ... a-leaf.jpg WARNING!

Re: Lethal Leaf A toothy submission from my garden is Acanthus montanus. The gardener must tread carefully - this one self-sows, and even the wee-est babes will nip yer toes  (IMO, the common name Alligator Acanthus is rightly earned).   _________________ Ellie in North Carolina (USDA zone 8 ) Current weather (WeatherNetwork) |

Re: Lethal Leaf I won't plant any of those near a garden path, that's for sure. Mahonia's aren't that nice for some unprotected bodyparts as well.
