Mountain Laurel

Mountain laurel was first recorded growing in the wild in 1624 and can be found on rocky ridges and mountainous forest area.

This beautiful flowering plant can be deadly to humans and animals. Bark, flowers, seeds, leaves, roots, stems, and sap are all poisonous. Even the honey made from bees that forage exclusively on Mountain Laurel is toxic. It is called ‘Mad Honey’. Lovely to look at but beware...

Some plants can be poisonous if ingested.

Others can hurt you if you get them on your skin. For some plants, all parts of
the plant are poisonous.

 Important to educate yourself on plants and any
possible toxic properties.
