Sago palm (Cycas revoluta)

The sago palm, often used for decorative purposes, is highly toxic and can cause severe symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, and headaches if ingested. It's crucial to keep this plant out of reach of pets and children, as it can be fatal if consumed, especially the seeds.

When handling a sago palm, always wear gloves to protect your skin from its sharp spines. Place the plant in a location with bright, indirect sunlight, and water it sparingly, allowing the soil to dry between waterings to prevent root rot. Ensure the pot has adequate drainage to avoid waterlogging and maintain the plant's health.
