A retired couple found an unusual and deadly tropical plant in their own Bristol garden. The plant is called Datura stramomium and it is also known as Devil’s snare, that is highly poisonous plant used by South American Indians for poisoning fishing hooks and other ammunition. Even the seeds of the plant are poisonous and provoke hallucinations.

Plant

The plant became popular after JK Rowling featured it in its first book about Harry Potter adventures. The couple wasn’t aware how dangerous this plant is and they though that it was quite attractive.

According to the woman, who pulled some of the dead flowers from the plant, she felt a bit poorly afterwards. Right now the plant should be burnt, even its seeds and dead leaves.
