Foxgloves.

Extractions are taken from these to be used in medicines especially for the heart, but can be fatal if the plant is digested.

Children have been known to drink the water in which these have been placed, with dire consequences.

 

These grow profusely in the woodlands where I live.....mainly in this cerise colour and pure white.

They look beautiful amongst all the greenery.,
