Yellow Jessamine

The allure of the sweetly perfumed, brilliantly colored flowers of yellow jessamine masks the fact that it contains a deadly poison whose fatal effects have been compared to the hemlock's.
The alkaloids in this plant are toxic and act as a depressant to the central nervous system. A person or animal that eats any part of it can pass from paralysis to death without intervening loss of consciousness. Even bees that pollinate yellow jessamine are occasionally poisoned by it.
