A genus of poisonous plants commonly known as hemlock, found in temperate regions worldwide.
From Latin 'conium,' the Roman name for hemlock. The Greeks called it 'koneion,' and the plant has carried this name for over 2,000 years.
Conium is literally the plant that executed Socrates—the same genus that killed one of Western philosophy's greatest minds is still growing wild across the planet today, still poisonous, still dangerous, an unchanged monument to ancient history.
