Alnus acuminata is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, as with any plant, it is advisable to prevent pets and children from ingesting any part of the tree.Aanvullend
Alnus acuminata is valued for its ability to improve soil fertility through nitrogen fixation, making it a beneficial addition to agroforestry systems. It is also used for reforestation projects and as a source of timber and firewood.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
