One of our neighbors had a castor plant in the front garden, together with other dangerous plants. I got a few beans every year because I find them pretty and liked to draw them. I knew they were poisonous and we always threw them away later. But I still love the plant and the pretty beans and would love to paint/draw it and the beans again.
@@OfftheCuff_Series nice of you to say, you guys made it nice and relaxing to talk to ,almost like the camera wasn't there.love the channel.Lammas village was great vid too
@@OfftheCuff_Series great here we just reopened a couple of weeks ago after winter closing,plenty of victims round the poison garden.i will mention the video on the tours hopefully get a few new subscribers.all the best and keep up the good work
@@OfftheCuff_Series My mother got stung a few years ago. It hurt for months afterwards, and left a black scar that took about a year to go away. nasty stuff, but facinating
I thought in study botanic in college, thought it would be important to investigate the plants of my country and try to reduce dependence in international fruits and grains...finding poisonous aspects in the plants would be the first thing I would have to do. Pity I end up as a environmental engineer. But I still like to read about them plants.
@@OfftheCuff_Series Mozambique public University UEM (Universidade Eduardo Mondlane), now I am continuing in Portugal, will probably resume the studies of butanics after my graduation... I am pretty sure I can keep it as a side project, something like enhanced native seed. Hope Monsanto doesnt come after me😅
@@maximianocoelho4496 that’s very cool!! I’m sure you can take on Monsanto - they’re not even thattttt big right? 😂 Have you looked into any of those high security seed banks by chance?
@@OfftheCuff_Series "they are not that big" 😂 they are everywhere, they are the plague! Haven't, I know the one in Svaalbard, but the base objective is a community focused of recirculation and analysis of the seed quality. Sounds fancy but is just like an Open Source Program where we provide the best seeds of each season, trimming thr bad, cross breeding and promoting quality.
I love plant's, a major study of mine. Did they have Giant Hogweed? It mite have been the end of the season but its a very nasty plant. I'd even say its a culprit of Vampires skin blistering in the sunlight, as that is a reaction your skin has to the sap of the plant on your skin. It is however a beautiful plant for a garden, growing up to 12 ft or taller.
Seriously they have built a fence around the castor plant???? Forget 1 seed Castor plants grow wild beside my house. In India ppl crush the castor seeds and use it for Paronychia which surprisingly heels it within couple of days.
Castor plants will ward off gophers or so Old gardeners in America planted them to keep gophers out of the fields? They are getting harder to find in America than 30 years ago. I quit planting them when I found they are dangerous around children, I had children and animals 30+ years ago.
An UTTER DISSAPOINTMENT. Most of the plants are growing in your garden, The have the weediest (no pun intended) Cannabis plants (Poison! Really?). The trip around the garden centre is a better experience.

The RuneScape clip when they talked about yew trees made my day
This comment made my day 🥲
@@OfftheCuff_Series the Stinging tree is my favorite plant
7:30 - yeah... about that....
LOL
The most underrated channel on UA-cam
Thanks for the love! We have a few more UK videos coming out soon :)
Right how do they not have a million + subs so confused! This is quality content

Nice! Do you grow poppy as well?
@@OfftheCuff_Series lol, yes, we had huge very big, bright red ones. They are banned in the US, so I had to leave them behind when I immigrated.
@Sarah Shea I was talking about the particular kind of poppy plants I had. Castor be an plants are ok in the US.
I’ve spent my whole life accidentally killing plants - If I got one of those Ricin plants they might finally get their revenge…
😂😂
Loved this video! Like most things in life, can be used for good or evil. It is not the plant, but the intention with which it is used.
Very well put, Vivian!
1:34 Castor Bean shrubs grew wild in my backyard in the Philippines and I remember playing with the spikey berries as a kid and popping them open 😅
Just found your channel and I've been binging your videos! Got yourself a new sub
Glad you found us!
That's the saddest looking cannabis plant...EVER🤣
Agreed 😂
Fun and informative. Thanks for sharing another great video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I played with castor beans and plants as a kid. I remember peeling the pods open and smashing the seeds up.
Did you eat them?🤷♂️
Wow. I had no idea that such a place existed.
Definitely a magical place!
That stuff is scary, fun to learn about though haha
Totally! The real life examples are nutty

I remember seeing castor oil beans by the bagful at after school program. For use in arts and crafts
Scary place but very interesting video.. TFS
Thanks! Glad you found this video. We'll be putting some more videos out that we filmed in the UK soon. Be on the lookout ✌️
I enjoyed the story of how the garden was first started. I wish you had covered that a bit more here. Maybe in the follow-up...
Next time :) Is there something specific you are wondering?
Whoa! What an interesting place!
I like you guys.....you have another subscriber.
Thanks, Jim :)
Careful in that garden!
Careful, but not tooooo careful 💁♂️
Very interesting!
I would make a new challange on the internet with that bean
This place is my number one Bucket List 💀
Wow. I had no idea anything like that exists.
Now you know :)
Does the garden have Urtica Ferox, aka the Ongaonga? It's a plant native to New Zealand and I'm quite fond of it.
Hmm, I'm not totally sure. I just asked the gardener. I will keep you posted :) What draws you to the Ongaonga plant?

They mentioned something like that just before the video ended.
Sometimes ricinus is the most common plant in my hometown, nothing too awesome.
Very interesting.

Can't believe how lacklustre humdrum and boring this was.
