    hi,
    I can not find anything about that this herb is toxic anywhere else on the internet. only info that it is a very beneficial plant and eaten by humans. can there be a mix up? or could you tell me more about this?
    i am currently fencing in a piece of land with lots of this herb so would be good to know if it is really dangerous:), our horses have eaten quite some of it and no problems yet..

      This plant HIGHLY toxic to equines, neighbour’s horse lost its hooves as a result of eating Rosebay Willow Herb. With exceptional care by owner & vetinary care the horse
      survived BUT you can imagine the pain & suffering. Without exceptional care the horse
      would have been put to sleep.
