Toxic to pets

Arum lily is harmful to people and pets if any part is eaten, and its sap irritates skin and eyes. Wear gloves when cutting it, keep sap away from your face, and stop children and pets chewing the leaves or flowers. Get medical advice if a person has swallowed any, and contact a vet if a pet has.
