Dear Mr. Mani Nair ji, You have made an incorrect guess. The plant you are referring to is different. We have quite a bit of it. This plant as you will notice in one of the pictures is held by me in my hand. It does not create any allergy. This plant is very tender, the stem contains a very large part of transparent fluid, in fact most of it is fluid. Regards Yazdy Palia.
