The Darling Buds Of Margham - #224
Any plant experts?
These feel almost alien species to me - take near Margham - which is the only oil field in Dubai and will run out soon.
Not to worry though - Abu Dhabi (the capital of the United Arab Emirates) is still sitting on 10% of the known world oil reserves...

You're in right about oil ;-) and the photo it's very nice !
you are a genius. nice one
but stay away for this plant it can hurt your eyes.
Is that Sodom's Apple? If so I heard all sorts of scary stories about it, including the make-you-go-blind one.
Possibly just Old Bedouins' Tales, but I err on the side of ancient wisdom and modern caution (paranoia) ;)

Interestinghistory!
I've seen this in India, the milky sap is supposed to be toxic / blinding / caustic depending on the story. I say "supposed" because I didn't test their veracity.
