Castor Bean

Castor bean (Ricinus communis, aka: mole plant) is a fast growing tropical plant. Castor plants are beautiful additions to the garden… but be careful all parts of the plant and the seeds are poisonous if ingested.It’s very important to wear gloves when handling and you might not want to grow it in your garden if you have pets or kiddos running around. At minimum, you should keep the seeds out of reach of children and pets at all.
