We need to recognise these poisonous plants so we know what we’re dealing with. One person’s poison is another person’s medicine.
Hemlock is highly poisonous - it killed Socrates. Henbane less so - but don't take any chances. It had miraculous, oracular, hallucinatory, magical, analgesic, anaesthetic, sedative, narcotic, malefic, necromantic, sexual, weather-controlling, fumigatory and even flavouring uses. It was once an ingredient in beer (don't try it). It may have been the hebenon poured into Hamlet's father's ear.
