    The term "toxic" refers to any ill effect on a pet... a toxicity can be as mild as some GI upset or mucosal irritation all the way to acute kidney failure and death. Just because one is toxic doesn't mean it's necessarily harmful in the sense that it will cause death. That's why it's important to look up all side effects of possible ingestion for every plant, ESPECIALLY in house holds where you have pets that can't seem to keep their little mouths off of them...

    And yes, poinsettias are one of them that are toxic but not fatal if ingested, that's a good example.

    I have one more I forgot to upload, think it's a bit fragile. Do you know it?

    Kinda looks too early to tell - have you had this one long? Almost looks like just sprouting nasturtiums, although those usually do better in a garden than a plant pot!

    I've had a look at Nasturtiums, but I don't think it's one of those. I'm hoping Lut's Bernard will take a look, he might know all of them.

    I asked my hubby, but he doesn't recognize these plants, as it are all indoor plants.... . He just knows a lot about plants for the garden
    Cannot you ask it in the shop where you bought them?
    I know one thing: it is better to water plants not enough than to much. Most indoor plants don't like to stand in full sunshine as well...
