The text describes Oenanthe crocata as a poisonous plant causing a smile at death.
Infact verdict: Mixed (42/100).
The claim that Oenanthe crocata causes its victims to smile at the moment of death is an example of folklore associated with the plant and is not scientifically supported. The evidence found primarily discusses the plant’s toxicity and its potential to cause convulsions and sudden death, but there is no mention of this specific effect such as a smile. The sources highlight that the plant is extremely poisonous and emphasize the need for immediate medical treatment if ingested.
