Schmitz's Grandpa would probably qualify. The Discworld has some rather
deadly-type plants and flowers... currently reading through the Discworld
fanfic of one A.A. Pessimal, which focuses mainly on the Assassin's Guild, and
one of the original characters introduced is a Mrs. Davinia Bellamy, who
received an invitation to join the Guild [*] as a Mature Candidate.

She was a florist and botanist, and discovered _after_ she'd gotten married and
had three kids and a career that her floral knowledge could be used to ... help
out ... the odd battered wife, or woman married to a child-abuser, or the like.
In rather permanent and unexpected ways. Unexpected by the husband and Watch,
anyway.
