Hello Everyone! Today we are discussing the notorious plant Atropa Belladonna, as the first plant in our dangerous plant series. Known for it's poisonous qualities, we discuss some of it's habits as a plant, some important stuff you might want to know about it, and some of its references in popular culture.
It's a crazy plant, known to be dangerous just from the touch, not to mention deadly when ingested. It's one of those classic poisons we may have heard of but don't know everything about. It's especially sneaky in that you can develop a resistance to it and can be eaten by many types of livestock with no effect (but not dogs and cats, just to be clear) and so has fooled people for centuries. Join us as we discuss the mysterious and serious Atropa Belladonna.
In our new series we are now recording remotely, so please excuse any difference in sound quality as we navigate these difficult times!
