A common plant in the deserts are the dogbanes.
These plants are poisonous. Dogbane is also called Indian hemp, amyroot, bitter-root, rheumatism weed, wild cotton and General Marion's Weed, in honor of General Francis Marion, an American Revolutionary commander known as the "Swamp Fox" for his tactics for harassing British troops, then retreating into the Carolina swamps and forests.
Another common plant in the desserts is the Datura it is also poisonous.This stout, branched, sprawling perennial has long, gray-green, ovate leaves up to 6 inches long, which are covered by tiny smooth hairs. It may grow up to 2 feet high.
What would u do if u ate one of these plants?
