Since childhood, we have been taught the benefits of planting trees. We are taught to love plants and trees because they clean the air we breathe, provide shade from the sun, and even provide nutritious fruit. But there is one tree that you cannot love even if you want to. Getting too close to this plant can harm you in many ways. This is because it is the most dangerous tree in the world. It is called the Manchineel tree. Manchineel plants are commonly found along beaches in tropical climates from Florida to the Caribbean and parts of Central and South America. This small tree-like apple fruit is full of poison and punch that doctors call it manzanilla de la muerte or little apple of death.
Although it may seem negative, judging from the history of this plant and fruit, it can be said that people use the juice of these fruits to destroy their wealth and even pollute the waters of the raiding party.
However, in modern history, there is no death penalty for eating this fruit. Well, the taste of the fruit can still be painful because it causes severe burning and swelling in the throat. In addition to this, the area around your mouth can become very enlarged, leading to severe digestive problems.
These are not the only dangers associated with this plant. Even if you decide to touch the leaves or stand under them during a thunderstorm, it will cause blistering lesions on your skin. In addition, a small amount of sap from the plant or smoke from its plant can cause you to experience temporary blindness.
The whole plant is bad, but not for the lucky turkey. The plant’s well-developed roots help prevent soil erosion while providing a good habitat and sufficient age for the garrobo. Garrobo is a striped or striped iguana that is common in Central and South America.
