- Poisonous plants are an important thing to know when foraging wild edibles and medicinal plants, and in this video we cover 4 important ones that you should pay attention to. In the early spring during Morel season you might find a strange looking and unique plant known as Jack in the Pulpit. This plant is high in Oxalic Acid and can cause severe burning if ingested or through rough skin contact. Later in the summer you might come across another unique and strange looking plant known as Dolls Eyes or Baneberry. It get's its name from the white berries with black spots that resemble the eyes of a childhood doll. This plant is highly poisonous and can cause severe stomach upset or even worse if too much is consumed. We'll also take a look at the notorious poison ivy plant and compare it to another poisonous plant that many confuse with poison ivy known as Virginia Creeper. Lastly we'll look at the one of most deadly plants known to man, the Water Hemlock. This plant is so dangerous that a few grams of it can be fatal and it can be mistaken for edible plants like the wild carrot so it's important to know how to identify it so you don't poison yourself or your family.

Can you make a complete guide on berries. The edible and the poisonous. Mushrooms too will be great.
I could make one on the berries I find here in Indiana though it wouldn't be a complete guide to all berries because there's just too many to cover. However it should have some good information on a few really common species. Thanks for the idea, I really like it!
@@TrilliumWildEdibles I appreciate it. I've been looking for any video with at least the most common in North America. I always see them, but I'm afraid of eating them while camping.
During the winter when the leaves are gone, I learned that you can tell poison ivy vines apart from virginia creeper by how hairy they look. Virginia creeper might have a couple tiny roots branching of the stem here and there but poison ivy is covered in them like its trying to fade in to the bark with a gradiant
I misidentified Jack in the pulpit, I ate the berries. After a few minutes it hurt beyond belief ! Felt like I ate a jellyfish. Don't be like me
Oh that's terrible! I made the mistake of crushing the berries to see what they smelled like and my hand burned so bad. Nothing really helped but time, which in my opinion was way too long!
What did you do? Charcoal? Hospital?
@@kleineroteHex I second that question!!
I tried plantain leaves, ice water, Yarrow leaves, and burn cream. None of it worked. It took several hours for the burn to start to dissipate but overall it took about 2 days to fully go away.
@@TrilliumWildEdibles horrible! But what did LeAnn do?
or what is the chemical that burns???
Great video - very informative , thank you. I’d love a video on the difference between stinging and wood nettles.
I really appreciate your videos.
I noticed that you often start up close with the details of the plant. It would really help me if you showed the whole plant at the beginning so I can see the whole before the details. In some of the videos, I keep waiting to see the whole plant, but sometimes you don't show the whole plant at all. This makes it really difficult for me to identify them in the natural. In the natural we most often see the bigger whole plant before we look more closely at the details.
I also hope you read these comments and will see this. Bless you and thanks so much! Your videos are very helpful.
I try to when it's feasible but sometimes it just doesn't work well because my camera struggles to pick up all of the plant well because of all the other plants around it, especially on very large plants or plants that are thin and spindly surrounded by so much vegetation. I'll try to do it more if I can get it to work well because I agree that would be beneficial.
@@TrilliumWildEdibles Thanks so much for the explanation. It helps to understand your dilemma. I also appreciate your response and understanding and willingness to see how you can show the whole plant first and more often when feasible. I have lots of wild edibles in my yard and looking for ways to add to them. Your channel helps.
You're very welcome for the explanation and thank you for being so understanding!
@@TrilliumWildEdibles I find your content and video to be excellent! Thanks for taking the time. More people need to be aware of all of the stuff. I’m finding a bunch of it in my yard, and I live in town
In GA, people often confuse Virginia Creeper with Poison Ivy. Leaves of three, let them be. Creeper has five leaves. The oil in the poison ivy and oak is incredibly hard to dissolve, but it is imperative to remove it from tools and clothing, as well as skin, as it can last for years. Alcohol wipes work well on tools.
I'm allergic to Virginia creeper but not poison ivy. Lol .
@@leannhoward7306 Oh no! I'm so allergic to poison oak/ivy that it puts me in the hospital.
@@karenuntz6514 I'm so sorry that must be an absolutely miserable experience! A few years echo a couple co-workers at a landscaping company I was working for at the time got it so bad they were both hospitalized. Both guys and both had gone to the bathroom before washing it all off their hands, if you catch my drift. Poor guys. I had to do all the poison ivy removal after that LOL
@@leannhoward7306 Oh no!!! That is awful! Talk about an itch!!! Ouch! 😜
Yeah I know of someone who got poison ivy from using a tool that someone else used to cut the vine. Thankfully for them it was a mild reaction but it highlights the importance of being cautious.
Thank you !!!
I learned a lot 💙
Good video thanks for your work!
Thank you so much for your expertise on these wild plants!
There's a remarkable look-alike to the poison ivy, namely Box Elder, which is a tree related to maple. Box elder's leaves are nearly identical to poison ivy's leaves.
Good informational video , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Summer 2022 was a “good year” for Water Hemlock in the Pacific Northwest. Several people died from them being mis-identified as wild carrot.
Ty
Love your information
Thank you, I love seeing you in the comments!
Very awesome bro!!!! Learned a lot
Thank you bub, I'm glad you enjoyed it! Always nice having you here in the comments!
Your videos are VERY GOOD thank you
You're very welcome!
Your plants are very interesting, want to take care of him together 🇲🇨🙏
Do you have any videos on American lovage (ligusticum canadense) ? I am pretty sure I have some in my woods, but it looks SO much like water hemlock that I'm afraid to touch it.

Thank you for sharing this video!
Jack in the Pulpit. If you gently squeeze the base of the flower Jack will “squeak” preach to you.
new subcriber
❤❤❤
It is so important to wear safety glasses when you're weed eating into brush near creeks and ponds. If that juice gets in your eyes Its as poisonous as ingesting it. It can also get in cracks and cuts of the skin. Hogweed looks like this but bigger. It's effects are terrible and long lasting.
2:46 "Looking sort of phallic" 😄
Oh! Ok
🙋🙋🙋
Jack-in-the-pulpit root can be processed and eaten, but I hear it's miserable when consumed raw.
The root needs to be dried then roasted to be edible but it's honestly not worth the effort. Tastes good, mild cocoa flavor but so small and it's honestly easier to just buy cocoa powder from the store.
I found one plant that was about 30 inches tall. I wonder how large the corm would be in it...
FACT!! 1:01
Is buttercup poisonous ?
Looks like Trilium.
Yeah
Im not going anywhere near dolls eyes they freak me out
Lol, they're kinda creepy looking!
Leaves of ,3 leave em be!!
How can you carefully destroy poison ivy?
Imma catch poison ivy just watching this video! 😂. I get it when the wind blows, no lie
three leaves leave it alone that's what my grandma always told us
Poison ivy vines will get as big as your forearm.
Poison ivy does not have essential oil friend.
I don't need to know all the poisonous plants,my rule is simple,i do not touch any plant i don't know.
they all would make an excellent side salad for Death Row inmates😊
Or certain politicians...
