Beware, the iris (blipped on my walk to work)

Beautiful it may be, but it is a rather toxic plant.

Irises contain the potentially toxic compounds irisin, iridin, or irisine. Symptoms of Poisoning: The gastrointestinal tract may become affected by the glycoside iridin, causing nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, and fever. Also Iris can cause skin irritation or dermatitis.

After that cheery information, here's hoping you have had a good start to the week.
