A shocking news for exotic plant lovers: one of the most dangerous plants on the planet has arrived in England — the stinging tree Dendrocnide moroides, better known as gimpy-gimpy. This plant, from the nettle family, native to the tropical forests of Indonesia, can cause such excruciating pain that those who come into contact with it may even experience suicidal thoughts.
It all begins with a neurotoxin that is released upon contact, causing sharp sensations that can last for weeks or even months. The legend of this plant says that when a horse accidentally brushed against it, it fell into shock, went insane, and died within two hours, writhing in agony.
To keep people safe, gimpy-gimpy is now placed in a glass display at one of the botanical gardens in the UK, where a special keeper monitors it carefully. Even the slightest touch can lead to an absolute nightmare.
Interestingly, a daredevil once tried to grow this plant at home, but the authorities quickly intervened and moved it to the "Poisonous Plants" section. This is a reminder that not all exotic plants are just decorative ornaments.
