Gardens Update: Rash research
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.A RESEARCH project on the toxicity of garden plants is being set up by the National Poisons Unit, the Royal Horticultural Society and the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew. If you find anything that gives you a rash, makes you itch, or otherwise upsets you, they would like to know about it. Contact the Director of Horticulture at the RHS, 80 Vincent Square, London SW1P 2PE or Christine Leon at the RBG, Kew, Richmond, Surrey TW9 3AE.
