- Monkshood, Aconitium carmichaellii, is a late blooming (non-native) perennial that serves pollinators. The genus is full of poisonous plants, so keeping this away from curious children and pets is a must. Enjoy the intriguing blue color reminiscent of delphiniums!

Huh. I had no idea monkshood was the same as wolfbane! Good to know!
So you never read or watched Harry Potter.
The poison derived from Aconitum, (there is no added 'i' in the name) was used by the Order of Assassins at the time of the Crusades. The order was formed in 1090 CE, in Persia and the Levant. Even if a knife wound did not kill the victim, the blade was often dipped in poison, and the poison would kill, more slowly. Arrows might be tipped with aconite poison.
What I find odd is that this is apparently related to the common buttercup as they are both among the Ranunculacæ.
How can I pant my vegetable garden ? My vegetable garden is about 50 feet away. I originally planted it because It was deer resistant
Its Aconitum not aconitiUm.
Oh please, for 25 years+ I have it all around my property. The roots are the only thing that can really make you sick! I have ducks, deer, and tons of woodland creatures nothing has been affected by this beautiful plant. I haven’t planted any near my chickens…why tempt fate?
Can I buy from you this? I pay it money of course. I need a plan. Wrapping Please!
Did you get it

High poisen
Hi, @UMDHGIC I'm curious to know, If a pollinator pollinates this flower and then moves to a vegetable's flower to pollinate like okra, would the okra now become poisonous?
_They_ probably want you to believe that, but don't worry, in the future, you won't be allowed to grow anything.
No no no no no, if the okra were to cross pollinate (which i don't think it could) the seeds could have some sort of poisonous component but its very rare. Are they even related closely enough to cross pollinate?
Why are you standing so close to it without gloves???
Because people always have without any harm at all.
Its not poisonous to touch, you absolute spoon!
@@slaturwinters1828 it is actually, just mildly, can cause skin irritation. but prolonged contact is obviously unadvisable.
I planted it in my garden in hopes the next time my neighbor’s pit bull digs his tunnel under his fence and comes to m back year to deficate, it will eat the wolfsbane.
Hell is hot
@@fashionkid-qt2qn faxxxxx this guys a POS
Good! Pit bulls are the most violent dogs in the world
Your sick
Have you thought of getting a fence or a hedge?
Why you talking like an 80s WWE wrestler?
Keep this OUT of your garden it is the world's most lethal plant. Don't touch.
I have a giant bush of it in my garden it was already there when I moved 😭 It’s hugeee
