Posionous Plant inquiry

endgf May 28, 2005 11:09 PM

I was wondering if anyone knew if Rhododendrons are posionous for tortoises? leaves or flowers or both? Please let me know. They are starting to bloom in the area and I was curious. Thanks

All parts of rhododendrons and azaleas are very toxic. In fact, even their nectar is mildly poisonous so that honey should not be eaten from areas where these plants are abundant.
