Did you know that Rhododendron plants are not just pretty to look at, but also deadly? That’s right, this seemingly innocent plant contains a toxin called grayanotoxin that can make you feel like you’re on a bad acid trip if you eat it. And if you’re a bee looking to sip some nectar from Rhododendron flowers, beware! You could end up feeling buzzed in all the wrong ways. But hey, at least the plant still makes for a great decoration…just maybe don’t try to eat it.
