A green plant with white blossoms that are clusters within larger clusters, similar to Queen Anne's lace. One way you can tell it's hemlock is that the stems have purple spots on them (not distinguishable in this image). Blossoms fill the frame. San Luis Obispo, California.
One plant that is doing quite well right now is hemlock (conium maculatum). It's growing all around here, but don't touch! It's highly poisonous.

An old #painting from back in the day. On the left is foxglove, the right is monkshood (wolfsbane) and on the bottom is nightshade. All are poisonous, but kind of pretty, I thought!

Many interested in #PoisonousPlants know of the association between grayanotoxins, Rhododendrons, and ‘mad honey’…
Pieris spp., part of the Ericaceae family, evolve the same!
This beauty is in flower in the Old Parliamentary Gardens in Canberra.
(Wisteria not out yet!😉)
I was today years old when I discovered that Pieris spp. also evolved grayanotoxins, as part of the Ericaceae family. Many of us might know about Rhododendrons and ‘mad honey’… this beauty is in flower in the Old Parliamentary Gardens in Canberra.

Pokeweed looks like elderberry, but it’s toxic and left me with blistering rashes. Don’t confuse the two. 🌿 Stay safe around wild plants.

Hemlock’s fern-like leaves, smooth stem & small white flowers hide a toxic threat. Found in moist areas such as ditches, it can be deadly. Learn to spot it: tinyurl.com/3tfpedya Share to keep our community safe! #staysafe #publicsafety #poisonousplants
This is Clintonia borealis, commonly known as Bluebead Lily or Yellow Clintonia. If you see something like this in the woods in the Northeastern US don't eat it. Highly poisonous. But they are beautiful. #poisonousplants #adirondacks #easternusplant #clintoniaborealis #bluebeardlily
Red Baneberry (Actaea rubra) is poisonous in all parts, especially the bitter berries—just a few can cause serious symptoms in adults and may be fatal to children.
