Autumn Crocus (also known as Meadow Saffron or Naked Ladies), is an autumn blooming flowering plant. It resembles true crocuses. They are highly poisonous due to their colchicine content, and the effects resemble arsenic with no known antidote. They were used by the Romans at times for the lethality of the poison.
