Much of the F. assyriaca available is actually F. uva-vulpis, you might want to
check the identification of your plants.


In fall 2001, the colored box cards for F. uva-vulpis read
"uva-vulips". I thought that would make a good name for a female
character in a novel, Uva Vulips. She grows mandrakes, deadly
nightshade, Aconitum ferox, Carolina jasmine, and jimson weed in
her choice, but deadly, cottage garden...
