1. Chinese lanterns
The Chinese lantern (Physalis alkekengi) is a dazzling plant, popular for its orange, lantern-shaped husks that house tiny berries. While people typically grow it for ornamental purposes, this plant is poisonous if ingested.
The berries inside might look delicious, but they’re rich in solanine, a dangerous compound that can cause vomiting, nausea, and even more severe symptoms if consumed in large quantities.
Its appearance is charming, without a doubt, making it easy to assume it’s harmless. You’d better keep this plant in your living room to brighten up your space, but never in your belly. It’s not good!
