But even if we do not overdo it with the dose, the daphne poison can cause redness and blisters, as well as kidney and stomach.
Spring "wolf" bush decorated with delicate flowers - pink, cream and lilac shades, but their beauty is deceptive - the pollen of flowers may cause dizziness and headache.

And when there are fruit - Pyatignezdnaya boxes with shiny black seeds - around yasentsa distributed fairly sharp flavor, like the smell of orange peel. This smell essential oils.
They say that if a windless sunny day bring a lighted match to the plant around it flashes red and purple flame, but the plant itself will remain untouched by fire. So he was called by the people "burning bush».
Despite the beauty yasentsa, to flowers and a box with seeds in any case, do not touch, and even smell them! First, people will not feel anything, but after a day on the site there is a touch of burns, which can be replaced by non-healing ulcers for a long time - a trace of them will remain forever. A yasentsa contact with a large area of ​​the body pose a risk to life. In our opinion this is the most dangerous plant in Russia.
