Corydalis cava - hollow larkspur Petasites hybridus - butterbur Helleborus foetidus - stinking hellebore / dungwort
Helleborus foetidus Stinking dungwort, a poisonous forest plant. Its green, rather inconspicuous flowers are amongst the first in late winter or early spring. The toxic effects were historically put to use as a laxative, emetic, worm treatment or even to induce an abortion. Due to the side effects (all of the “uses” at once) it has lost its importance in modern medicine.
