Description
A very pretty, but dangerous flower along the 2 mile loop hiking trail at Canyon Ranch resort.
Datura is a genus of narcotic plants, often called "toloache," that has been widely used by native tribes in the Southwest and Mexico, in Central America, and in western South America.
Jimson weed contains substances such as atropine, hyoscyamine, and scopolamine which interfere with one of the chemical messengers (acetylcholine) in the brain and nerves.
WARNING!! All parts of Datura are toxic! Do not use it! Almost every year, someone tries it and ends up in the hospital or dead!
