Description
Toxic Plants
Not all plants in the Nordic region are equally edible, and some are even poisonous. Therefore, it is important to be able to distinguish between edible and toxic plants. The book emphasizes the identification of toxic plants, as some closely resemble edible ones. A single mistake can cause harm, and in the worst cases, have serious consequences.
