Lucky find, i know they both enjoy disturbed ground

Finding the two together is very lucky. Deadly Nightshade is better in partial to full shade were as henbane must be in full sunlight. Belladonna been a plant chiefly found on chalky soil's you'd have thought living next to the South downs i'd have had better luck finding it
Henbane - well
