Back again with another request-

does any one know of a source for

wasabi seeds or divisions - a friend has asked me to track it down for her??

The aussie plant finder 99/00 doesnt have it listed -

Also its listed that oranda nurseries stocks lophophora , they dont anymore.

But apparently Gardenworld in Vic does - but i cant find it listed - any pointers??

Wasabi is Wasabia japonica, if that helps. Mmmmm... ever had wasabi peas? Yumm smile.gif

Collector's Corner at Gardenworld do often stock Lophophora spp. although they have been known to use wierd species names probably to throw us drug fiends off the scent. I'm sure if you specifically asked for L. williamsii or L. caespitosa they'd be able to oblige though. Not sure if they do mail order though...

They used to have a web site but I think it died/disappeared...

I'll back that up.

They do seem to run out of Lopho's once in a while so keep checking. Sometimes they have a nice range of Tricho's as well.

Wasabi ?

What you like, friend ?

Putting on the top of raw fish ???

Once I took much and it gave me temporal amnesia in Sushi Bar !?!? This is Entheomimic !

In Japan, they have many different Wasabi species to Make wasabi root bark Paste. I like their flower.

I think some Japanese gardening sites are selling them, search and try some.

Never mix Wasabi powder into 'snorty stuff', unless you want to stop your flatmates from stealing the 'snorty stuff'.

It's extreme, but it works wink.gif

The experience could definitely be called entheogenic, and the endorphin rush isn't half bad either.

Don't try this at home kids.
