For full show notes visit https://www.janeperrone.com/on-the-ledge/2025/10/24/episode-306-the-atlas-of-deadly-plants My new book The Atlas of Deadly Plants is out this week, published by Greenfinch, so I thought I'd celebrate by offering up a series of mini-podcast episodes digging into some of the themes and facts from the book - just in time for Halloween! In this mini-ep you'll hear a chapter from the book about Abrus precatorius, the rosary pea. Want to buy a copy right now? Click here.
