Public Tuesday tour: Under the spell of plants - the dose makes the poison
Monkshood is the deadliest plant in Europe. But did you know that it is also used in medicine to treat rheumatism or pericarditis? It's all just a question of the dose. Even today's pharmacists still utilise the effects of plant substances. Take a journey through our local gardens and be fascinated by the two faces of plants.
