Purple Allamanda (Allamanda Blanchetii) |
Just as we step out of our door, right in front of us is this beautiful Purple Allamanda climber.
A perennial flowering plant native to South America is an easy to grow climber.
It comes in 20 colours.
Every part of the plant is poisonous and should be kept out of reach of children.
If one plucks it the white latex sap that oozes out can cause severe irritation.
Beauty can often be dangerous.
It is classic case of toxic beauty. To be admired but from a distance.
