RE: Hardly Drab...the Duranta.

in #duranta6 years ago

Durant. Due to its coloring, in the people it has received the name "heavenly flower". This is a durant, whose homeland is the South American continent. It also grows in Mexico, some species are found in India. The name of the plant was given by the famous naturalist Karl Linnaeus in honor of Castore Durante - an outstanding physician and botanist who lived in Italy in the 16th century. As you already wrote
leaves and fruits durants are poisonous, they can cause poisoning. When caring for the flower, you must be careful: wear gloves when pruning and wash hands thoroughly with warm water and soap after working with the plant. In a house where there are children, it is not recommended to grow durant, because beautiful flowers and attractive fruits can cause harm.
Thanks for the message, thanks to you I learn a lot about the plants :)
