I just wanted to let you know that, as far as I know, not only the flowers, but even the leaves, stems, and roots are dangerous if swallowed or even touched. So, this plant is not a type of herb plant, but a type of ornamental plant that is perfect for indoor use. If your skin is sensitive, I would suggest using gloves when pruning or repotting.

Yes, the flowers of this plant are poisonous to humans because they contain lanceolin, stenodactylin, and volkensin, which cause symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, and lethargy when ingested.
