Poison hemlock may look like a beautiful wildflower, but this highly toxic plant can be deadly if swallowed. It often grows along roadsides, fields and ditches, reaching heights of 6–10 feet with clusters of tiny white flowers. Its distinctive green stems with purple blotches can help identify it, though appearance alone isn’t always reliable. Never touch or eat an unidentified plant; if exposed, wash your skin with soap and water, and seek urgent medical advice if poisoning is suspected.
