Maybe animals know better, because it is very prevalent, and I don't hear of animals dying, but I would research it further. That is a good question, and I don’t know the answer.

I didn't plant it and it wasn't there the last 2 summers, I don't know where it came from but it does have some of the most beautiful blooms! If it is one of the most "deadliest" plants on earth, then why is it safe to keep? It isn't near my horse but I do have dogs and cats. I need more information. Please help. I would hate to get rid of it if it isn't necessary but I don't want to harm any of my critters either. This plant has shown up in one of my flower beds pretty much overnight!

It is a great plant - and it seems to bloom all summer long - that is an extra treat! I found a great field blooming in the Valley of Fire State Park in Nevada last fall. Ron Michelle,

My wife has called it moon flower also - since it seems to bloom at night. We haven't tried any of its 'properties' yet though - I wonder how it is prepared?
