Is Nymphaea 'Albert Greenberg' toxic to dogs?

Nymphaea 'Albert Greenberg'

Mildly toxic to dogs

Mildly. The ASPCA lists nymphaea 'albert greenberg' as mildly toxic to dogs — a chewing dog typically gets mouth irritation, drooling, and vomiting rather than a medical emergency, but it is still best kept out of reach. This classification follows the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plant List. Nymphaea is not individually listed on the ASPCA Toxic or Non-Toxic Plants database, so its status is unconfirmed; treat with caution and verify with a vet. As a true waterlily (Nymphaea) it is distinct from the cat-lethal true lilies (Lilium/Hemerocallis), but ingestion of any aquatic plant may cause stomach upset; keep pets from grazing the pond.
