Marks & Spencer has apologised after a plant expert raised concern over a "poisonous" flower being placed next to vegetables.
In one of their stores, daffodils were placed next to spring onions under a sign saying "eat well". The bunches of flowers, which had not yet bloomed and as such could easily be mistaken for a vegetable, can be harmful if ingested.
Botanist James Wong, who has appeared as a presenter on several BBC series including the Chelsea Flower Show, The Secrets of Your Food and Springwatch, raised the alarm on Twitter after being sent a photo of the daffodils placed alongside spring onions in the supermarket.
