The mendrake plant grows in many forests here around the winter, they have beautiful blue-purple flowers that are very pretty, and those turn into fruits.
All the parts of the plant are poisonous, to animals and humans, and can result in hard hallucinations and death.
The ripe fruit is edible, but the black seeds inside are poisonous and needs to be removed.
The plant has many mentioned uses in the bible and ancient history, to help sex drive and male potency, as poison, as a love potion and many other uses, you can read about it more here on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandragora_officinarum
