13. SOUNDBITE (English) Trevor Jones, Alnwick Head Gardener:
“We have a whole collection of plants, many of which are fatal. So before you ever enter the poison garden you’re told not to touch, not to smell, not to stand too near the plants because they all have the ability to kill you.”

18. SOUNDBITE (English) Trevor Jones, Alnwick Head Gardener:
“I would say the most deadly is ricinus communis because from that you can extract the deadly poison ricin of which there is no known antidote. But there are lots of other really good poisonous plants – again very, very common such as atropa belladonna which is a native plant to the UK. It’s often called deadly nightshade but it will produce black berries which look like very sweet looking grapes and three of those are enough to kill a child.”

“The guides are so good, they build up this drama that by the time that people get to the end of the tour they’re almost petrified. It’s mainly old ladies actually that tend to collapse. Some people have thought it’s a particular plant, perhaps a scent that comes off the plants but I’ve never experienced that. I just think people get hyped up about it.”
