🍄 🐸 🌷 🥀 🐌 // poison garden // gouache on hot press paper

everything pictured in this piece is a poison: henbane in blue, belladonna in green, amanita muscaria in red, rosy bonnet in pink, lily of the valley, strawberry poison dart frogs, hickory tussock moth & caterpillar, ladybug. not the snails, though! they're just hanging.

[id: an illustrative gouache painting on a dark background. lush intertwined botanicals with textured blue and green leaves weave between red, white, and pink flowers. red frogs and ladybugs perch on stems, colorful pink and red mushrooms burst from the ground, and a moth hangs off a leaf. snails stroll quietly over the tops of mushrooms and along the ground. /end id]

Atropa belladonna berries freshly picked from my poison garden. So sweet, so juicy, so deadly. I’ll be drying them and saving the seeds as belladonna seeds and live plants can be pricy.

The most delightful part of starting a poison garden has been learning that Atropa belladonna is basically just a tomato for garden care purposes.

My Husband tried growing Foxglove last year. It did not go well for us. Mostly because of the little bastards (Aphids) that you see all over it in this photo. It was worth a try, though.

Not entirely happy with this picture, but I can't quite put my finger on why I'm not happy with it for some reason. And yet in other ways I love it? Confusing ... Ah well.

Pictured: Foxglove (Digitalis Purpurea cv 'Dalmatian Purple')

''The world's most poisonous garden''

'' The garden in Alnwick, England, is home to the most poisonous known plants on the planet: some are exotic species, but most are unsuspected plants that grow quietly in the lawn of the house and which have been used since ancient times to make poisonous potions. The sign at the entrance is unequivocal: "These plants can kill".

The Alnwick Poison Garden is however an attraction. The castle to which it is attached served as the setting for Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the early Harry Potter films. Created by Jane Percy, Duchess of Northumberland, in addition to rose gardens and rows of cherry trees, it brings together in one place the most toxic plants in the world. Visiting it is not dangerous: by respecting the rules of common sense, you risk nothing, but above all you learn a lot!''

This itsy bitsy Henbane flower in our poison garden is doing its best.

Petite récolte hier de baies de belladone, aka la cerise du Diable, ma Solanacée préférée 🖤 mais aussi de graines d’ipomée bleue, de datura, de tabac, de ricin et de pavot maritime.

(attention à ce que vous faites toutefois, la majorité de ces plantes sont psychoactives et très toxiques, voire mortelle même pour cette quantité de belladone dans ma main)

It's time for a long-overdue ✨shop update! ✨ 🌱 Been hard at work over here making a bunch of new prints and stickers for y'all! This is only about half of what's up over there right now. There's clear, waterproof stickers, glow in the dark stickers (the banjo frog ones!!), and so many new prints of newer paintings I've been working on! Thank you to everyone who's popped over to look at my work for y'alls support. This is my full-time job and it means the world to me!!

I went out to the garden after dinner. Deadheaded the Rose bush my Husband bought (the dual graft Burgundy and White Icebergs), plus sowed several of the flowers I've been meaning to sow the last couple of days and just keep not getting around to.

⇛ Put the Oriental Poppy (Color Mix) and California Poppy (Thai Silk and Watermelon Heaven) in the front garden, in the box by the fence; the same one where the Absinthe Wormwood and Mugwort are.

⇛ Put the Cosmos (Apricot Lemonade, Cupcake Blush, XSenia, and Summer Dreams) in the front garden, in the box by the Garage. Or half of it, anyway. The other half is taken up by the Chamomile and Yarrow- which I planted some Calendula (Pacific Beauty) on that side tonight as well, behind those.

⇛ Seeded the Woodland Flowering Tobacco in the old Mullein pot in the back corner, as well as the pot up by the John F. Kennedy Rose. I also put some of its seeds in one of the pots on the back deck by the Woodland Sage (April Night (?) and Rose Marvel) and Scarlet Sage we planted for the Hummingbirds.

Speaking of: My Father in Law thinks the Hummingbird feeder is under the Kitchen sink, so I'll look for it there tomorrow- and if not then I'll buy a new one. Because he said that's the last possible place it could be.

After it rains this weekend I'll probably go out and seed the Sunflowers, Okra, Peas and Beans, and Carnations. But tonight it was just lovely enough to sit out there and seed a few while the breeze carried the scent of Honeysuckle and impending rain around.

I missed Spring so much.

Datura seeds arrived today! I’ll be growing inoxia this time instead of stramonium and I’m rather sad about that, but I’ve never grown inoxia before so I’m also quite excited!!
