Jonquil
Narcissus jonquilla
Guideline: Poisonous
Type: Flowers
Jonquil, also known as rush daffodil, is a bulbous flowering plant native to eastern Europe. Although this plant is in the same family as common daffodils, an outstanding characteristic is that the smaller yellow or white flowers sprout and bloom in clusters, not individually. These flowers contain around 6 outer petals and a long trumpet shaped center.
For Your Pet: Jonquils contain a poisonous substance called lycorine which is a toxic crystalline alkaloid. If your rabbit eats a Jonquil, they may experience severe nausea and gastrointestinal pain, however most rabbits tend to stay away from Jonquils if they have a well balanced diet.
Warning: Do not feed your pet Jonquils as it can cause serious illness.
Resources: If you believe that your pet has been poisoned immediately call your vet or one of the animal poison control hotlines on this list.
