About
Physostigma venenosum, the Calabar bean or ordeal bean, is a species of leguminous plant in the family Fabaceae, endemic to tropical Africa, with a seed poisonous to humans. It derives the first part of its scientific name from a curious beak-like appendage at the end of the stigma, in the centre of the flower; this appendage, though solid, was originally believed to be hollow.
