Welke planten in jouw woonkamer en tuin zijn giftig?
Nood aan nieuwe kamerplanten of extra groen in de tuin? Beter even researchen vooraleer je naar het tuincentrum trekt, zeker als je kinderen of huisdieren hebt.

Spring is kicking in, and the botanic gardens of @UGent are looking gorgeous under a blue sky. Inside the greenhouse there is a lot to be entertained by too, though. What about these stunning Araceae, Amorphophallus ferruginosus and Arisaema candidissimus?

Trump never had a peace plan for Ukraine. He had a plan for Ukraine's surrender, with a colonial resource grab. As Zelenskyy rightly refused it, or to cooperate in Trump's TV spectacular, the US has now cut Ukraine off.
That's what blackmail looks like.
That's what the world is up against.
