Plants. They make beautiful gardens, bouquets, and you can eat them. But what about when plants try to kill you?

Today we are going to look at a list of plants that really don’t have an interest in you continuing to live.

This entire damn plant is poisonous. Not just the seeds, the roots. The whole thing can kill you.

Consuming this plant or even handling it can cause psychosis, paralysis, even death.

People still buy this plant online. I believe many of these people are possibly located in Florida. Because . . . Florida.

Found in Australia, Gympie Gympie is a slow killer. And it is said to be a painful demise. Folklore even mentions people throwing themselves off of cliffs after being stung by this tree.

Yes, the Gympie Gympie is a tree . . . that can sting the fuck out of you.

Symptoms include sneezing and running eyes which then leads up to a pain that is described as a combination of being burned alive with acid and electrocution.

The British Army once looked into making a weapon using this killer plant. I do not believe they did.

Now, if the British Navy had been in charge of this project. They def would have made the Gympie Gympie weapon. Believe that.

Found in North America and is a member of the same family of plants that is responsible for edible goodies like fennel and carrots.

Water Hemlock contains a little chemical known as “psychotoxin” (for all a y’all writing paranormal YA, remember this one).

When you consume Water Hemlock, the psychotoxin makes your body sweat and leads to kidney failure along with a whole range of psychotic symptoms.

First found in Europe and Asia, this plant is now commonly found throughout the world. Readers of MacBeth may be familiar with this plant already.
