Stachys Byzantina, Lambs Ears

Both myself and my sister have developed blisters after handling Lambs ears flowers. Has anyone else had a similar experience? I have researched on the web and all the info says that it is a safe, non-toxic plant!

    As pansyface says, allergies are personal and nothing to do with toxicity of a plant. 

    If it was toxic it would affect everyone

    My daughter grows this purposely so that the children she looks after can stroke it, never had a problem.
