Thanks for the alert, Rocklady. I hope all gardeners will heed your advice. Plants/stems/twigs/etc. can be so dangerous and we gardeners tend to suffer "optimism bias", believing it won't happen to us.

It can happen and it's not fun. Just one dahlia stem can put a gardener out of commission for a week. Luckily, there was no permanent damage.
