I have to write about something that is becoming annoying. It involves moving unsubstantiated information to the front page. When I see topics appear on the front page, I expect them to be valid. People can easily be misled when such invalid things are brought to the attention of many. A plant with such level of toxicity would not be found easily, talkless of being used as decoration. My first instinct when I read the post was to confirm how true it was, which a simple Google search revealed to be false. I would thus expect that the moderators or supermoderators would think about validating such facts before moving to front page. Please help reduce the misleading of people. Seun kindly take note. 3 Likes |

Dimejidude: Thanks for this. I had to look it up too, and I noticed that the Op kinda exaggerated, but I wouldn't blame the OP though, obviously he got the information from the link he posted aswel. It's an Hoax. However, the plant is poisonous, so we should try and avoid it's poisonous impact. 1 Like |

EOOJ:Op just save many live today but some ppl can still go and taste it to confirm if they shoul come here and ague with Op, anyway, Doctors must chop, Many things around us can kill faster than we think! The root stem of waterleaf is a 1st degree poison but the leaf is yummy for soup! Few/local ppl know this. |

OP is exaggerating. The volume you have to invest to die.had to be large. It wouldn't be such a common houseplant if it was so poisonous. Some species of cocoyam are even more poisonous. If you do want to know safer plants for indoors , please check this thread. [url]/https://www.nairaland.com/2894705/hibiscus-flower-society-calling-all[/url] C.c. Caracta, mykel25 1 Like 1 Share |
