Stroll in the park

We took Sugar Baby for a nice walk around Annmarie Garden Park today since we had to go out that way. The weather was nice enough and it was good to get some fresh air. There were containers with Lenten Rose along the way. It is always nice to see blooms in winter.
The lenten rose, like other Hellebores, can be moderately toxic if eaten in significant quantities. Although rarely fatal, ingesting large enough amounts of this plant can prove somewhat toxic. The unpleasant taste of these plants tends to prevent most animals from eating large enough quantities of this plant to become dangerously poisonous.
