You must be extremely cautious the next time you see a purple fence, particularly if you’re in the South. I’m serious. Your life could be jeopardized if you get too near to a purple fence. This doesn’t have to be an entire fence, either, so don’t be alarmed. It could just be a purple blotch on the bark of a tree. So pay attention: the next time you see a purple stain, this is exactly what you should do.
