Oleander: Eating a Single Leaf of This Deadly Plant is Enough to Kill an Adult Human

Oleander is a common landscape if not house plant in places with warmer climates, and with good reason: this almost foolproof evergreen shrub comes in a wide range of shapes, sizes, adaptability, and flower color. However, before you plant, you should be aware of oleander toxicity and the possibility of oleander poisoning.

Oleander Plant

Oleanders are extremely poisonous, meaning that even a tiny portion of the plant will cause poisoning symptoms.

According to the National Institute of Health, getting medical attention as soon as possible raises the chances of a complete recovery. Never cause vomiting until a medical practitioner advises you to.

If you think anyone has eaten oleander, contact the National Poison Control Center. If you have any concerns about your animals or a cat, call a veterinarian right away.
