Wolf's bane (7)

I believe the answer is:

aconite

(Other definitions for aconite that I've seen before include "Flower, for example monkshood or wolfsbane" , "Poisonous flowering plant" , "potential killer" , "Spring flower - poison" , "Yellow-flowered plant" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
