The Poison Garden


This poisonous garden sounds like it's from a fantasy novel but no, it's a real place! It's known simply as The Poison Garden, an area filled with plants that are deadly. Located in Alnwick Gardens, a huge and wonderful flowery place with many different sections. Found near Alnwick Castle in Northumberland, England. Created centuries ago. this super garden is divided with many different features set around a lush water display. The site is beautiful and worth visiting but the Poison Garden needs to be mentioned. It was first made in 2005 by authority of the duchess of Northumberland, who fancied a unique little garden that was completely rogue and interesting. The idea itself is to educate people on poisonous plants and drugs. The poisonous garden has more than 100 types of poisonous deadly plants that include hemlock, foxglove, Deadly Nightshade, angel's trumpets, golden rain, hellebore and wolf's bane. Also many plants are quite commonly found in the wild, such as the poisonous laburnum tree. A very scary place to visit for holiday!
