"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh

I'm shocked, and somewhat disappointed, to discover...
...that I don't have any of these things in my garden.
When I had a house with a yard and garden, I had foxgloves, castor plants, lilies of the valley, and even some hemlock out by the back fence (those things stink something awful), so I guess you could say I had a poison garden. I tried to get some monk's hood, but the seeds are hard to come by (because they're probably the deadliest). I like the flowers and the pretty foliage and I thought I might have to poison some fascists someday (not really, but the thought did cross my mind at times).
Paco, sometimes I miss humor, so.... Why on earth are you disappointed that you have none of these is your lovely garden?
ReplyDeleteI think it would be cool to have a bunch of poisonous plants in the garden. It would add an element of danger.

ReplyDeleteFoxglove is pretty, but we've never had any luck with it.
ReplyDeleteNow, right next to my poisonous plants, I'd like to have a section dedicated to carnivorous species...
“Murder plants”! Haw!
ReplyDeleteI say again, Haw!
