angel's trumpet

Pendant poisonous flowers

Angel's trumpet is a flowering shrub or small tree with large, dramatic trumpet-shaped blooms that hang downward.

Native to South America, it's grown as an ornamental for its spectacular flowers, which can reach a foot in length and often release a sweet fragrance at night.

All parts of the plant are highly toxic, containing tropane alkaloids that cause hallucinations, delirium, and potentially death if ingested.
