A plant that kills you

 Dumbcane is a plant that has big leaves and a streak of white in the middle of the leaf.

If you eat it, it causes blisters or swelling that can cause difficulting breathing and speaking. The reason behind it is Calcium Oxalate, the main component of kidney stones. The effects can last to 2 weeks and become fatal if it is in your windpipe.
