SJ....These look like Alamander or Oleander....lovely flowers however...

everything about this plant is deadly poisonous...seriously. The sap,

leaves, stems & branches, roots & the flowers themselves. Even if

there's a need to burn the old dried trimmings stand upwind or else

you die. It's been used throughout history as a poison and from what

I have gathered off the web...there is no medical usage for the toxin

either. Beautiful....but...evil. Be careful OK.

The yellow flower is Alamander .... I have never heard that to be poisonous!

But this is Oleander (quite common... even used along hwys of California, I remember from years back)

Also common here, yes is toxic! Lots blooming around Samui right now!

@ SJ..."The yellow flower is Alamander .... I have never heard that to be poisonous!"

Here's one of many links from a quick Google search...

There seems to be heaps of controversy about the allamanda (proper selling)

some say mildly toxic to lethal. All I know is that a 5 year old dog I once had,

just a mutt, died 2 days after chomping down an allamanda bud.

Some websites say the allamanda can be used as a laxative...hmmmmm

I'll just stick to somtam if I'm ever plugged up...which is rare.

We could go on and on about poisonous plants.... better in the the Gardening forums here on TV!

All parts of Caladium are toxic too.... but very common, in various forms!
