Twenty intricate pages of datura, belladonna, foxglove, and other beautiful poisons, drawn in Victorian herbal style.

Death's-head moths, apothecary bottles, and alchemical symbols weave through thorned vine borders.

Scientific botanical elegance meets gothic storytelling on every page.

Beauty has its poisons

Deadly Blooms is a botanical coloring book with a secret: every flower in it can kill. Rendered in the style of Victorian herbals and antique apothecary plates, its pages feature datura’s trumpet blossoms and spiked seed pods, nodding foxglove, glossy belladonna berries, and the moths and bottles that keep them company.

The result is elegant rather than eerie — precise botanical linework, labeled-specimen charm, and vine-wrapped frames dotted with poison bottles.
