Jesse recollects to Walt what he heard from the doctor, that the berries from this Lily of the Valley tree is sometimes mistakenly eaten by little kids. It's implied that this happens often enough that it's not so surprising.

I believe the writers are just making it seem like Walt poisoned Brock. I don't believe Walt actually did it. I can only assume the writers decided to do this so that we would have something to think about between now and the new season.

Gus and his gang could just as easily know about how common it is for kids to get poisoned by this, leverage this information, poison the kid, and have Jesse finally convert over to their side. They bet too much on this gamble, and it backfired.
