A colleague in our high school greenhouse stuck
herself very deeply in the hand with a Madagascar
palm. It became very swollen but eventually went
down. However she has a large knot at the joint
where she was punctured. Her doctor seems
mystified and she is very alarmed. Does anyone
know of any substances in this plant that could
cause such an injury?
