Your best bet is to consult the ASPCA list mentioned above. They have a comprehensive list and can provide more expert opinions.

ASPCA also can provide more details on wild onions. I recommend you stop your dog from digging them up, and consider putting up a small fence to make it inconvenient for her to go in there.

You’re right, Ginger. Angel’s Trumpet (Datura spp.) is beautiful, but has poisonous flowers, leaves and seeds. Definitely one to handle with caution.

Another highly toxic one is angel trumpet. I have one, but I wouldn’t if I had a baby or dog that I couldn’t keep away from it.

Thankfully our dog is uninterested in plants, and our cats don’t go outside. Still this is good info to have!

I had no idea the list of poisonous plants was so big! We propagate and sell hydrangeas here at our family nursery and we have quite a few dogs around. I sure hope they are smart enough to stay away (so far so good!)
