However, I *do* like
the sound of "Uva Vulips" and her deadly choice of garden plants. It's a
shame we couldn't meet up sometime, she'd just love my now flowering Arum
dioscoridis!

Maybe our fictional Uva Vulips sends bouquets of arum dioscoridis
to her friends when in hospital?

I doubt if Uva Vulips has friends. More likely, she'd plant an outline
of her initials in arum dioscoridis, on the graves of her enemies.
