Is Zygopetalum 'Redvale' toxic to dogs?
Zygopetalum 'Redvale'
No — zygopetalum 'redvale' is listed by the ASPCA as non-toxic to dogs. It is a sensible choice for a home with a dog; a curious nibble will not poison them, though no plant is meant to be eaten. This classification follows the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plant List. Zygopetalum is not individually listed by the ASPCA, but the ASPCA classes Phalaenopsis and Jewel orchids as non-toxic to cats and dogs, and cultivated orchids of this type follow that non-toxic pattern. Considered pet-safe; the realistic hazard is pesticide or fertiliser residue rather than the plant, so rinse foliage, and chewing may still cause mild stomach upset.
