Show Notes

I meant to mention in this ramble that in old range plant books and even in some floras, it’s noted that this plant is quite poisonous to cattle or horses. Ironically if you were to look this plant up in your favorite medicinal plant book you’d find that this Senecio has many uses for humans. Now you know. And hey, the photos are mine.
