  1. poison parsley

    Poison parsley, also known as Conium maculatum or hemlock, is a highly toxic biennial herbaceous flowering plant in the carrot family. It is native to Europe and North Africa but has been introduced in the Americas and other parts of the world. All parts of the plant, especially the seeds, contain coniine, a volatile, oily alkaloid that affects the nervous system and can lead to paralysis and death. The plant is commonly recognized by its smooth, green, hollow stem, often spotted or streaked with red or purple, and umbrella-like clusters of small white flowers. It has been historically used as a method of execution, most famously in the death of the philosopher Socrates.
