Hi everyone.. I'm still preparing for registration so loads to do... and loads of questions to come!

So here's the 1st question of the day! (Hopefully only for today)

I was just wondering about the plants in my garden... To be honest there's not many but those I have I don't know!

I doubt there's anything poisonous as the previous owner years ago was a childminder if I remember right, but how can I be sure or what I should do!
I'm obviously not going to let kids eat the plants and the play area is away from it, so you will spot a kid heading that way immediately and can prevent them.

My luck Mrs O will e some plant expert and know every single plant I have and one of those will probably be dangerous!

Does anyone have any advice?

its all about risk assessments hun, all plants are posinous one way or another its how you plan on preventing the child from eating them...like never leaving child un-attended in the garden, teaching the children about safety with plants etc

there are so many plants to worry about and even if you dont plant them seeds can be dropped or blown in and grow.
