Guest degrussa Posted April 17, 2002 hi I'm new to ethnobotanicals, I'm interested in using them for stimulating the imagination and focusing/expanding the mind. Does anyone have any suggestions and cuttings etc as to what I should try? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest reville Posted April 17, 2002 Dude. Esperance I used to live there - great place In your climate youll find you can have most things that i have and even some more after you check out gomaos' garden, take a look at the AFSR off the community page Also check out the local nurseries Some things are dual use Mexican tarragon (Tagetes lucida) Salvia splendens Wormwood and the herb section might have some of the memory herbs like gingko, brahmi and gotu Kola In your climate i strongly suggest you explore the meditterranean herbs I think Ephedra and khat would love it there. And definitely get a cactus garden going though you will need to make sure it doesnt get waterlogged in winter and you feed them and water them in summer The easiest to grow would be Trichocereus species. T scopolicolus can be found easily in WA. Otherwise buy some seed or contact me for some Pachanoi cuttings Im sure you find plenty to keep you occupied PS dont forget to put in plenty of acacias like A obtusifolia and try a maidenii - most things like esperance good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
