Aconite, monkshood, wolf's bane, leopard's bane, women's bane, Devil's helmet or blue rocket. Call it what you will, it's poisonous and one of a few plants that is naturally capable of causing death in small quantities. In the early days of the Hemlock Society it was one of the plants recommended to end one's life.
