I truly believe the only way to preserve many of the psychoactive botanicals so loved by the entheogenic community is to cultivate them and spread their genetics around the world. Below is a list of ethnobotanicals which are believe are in serious need of preservation.

Botanicals in need of Cultivation and Preservation-

Anadenanthera colubrina var. cebil & A. peregrina var. peregrina ~ "Cebil" or “Yopo” (High Risk)
Banisteriopsis caapi ~ “Vine of the Souls” or “Ayahuasca”
Diplopterys cabrerana ~ “Chaliponga” or “Oco’ Yage” (High Risk)
Lophophora williamsii ~ “Peyotl” (High Risk)
Mimosa tenuiflora (syn. hostilis) ~ "Jurema" (High Risk)
Psychotria viridis ~ “Chacruna” (True Form)
Salvia divinorum ~ "Pipilzintzintli"
Tabernanthe iboga ~ “Iboga” (High Risk)
Trichocereus pachanoi & T. peruvianus ~ “San Pedro” (Potent Clones)
Turbina (syn. Rivea) corymbosa ~ “Ololiuqui”
Virola calophylla; V. calophylloidea; V. elongata; V. peruviana & V. theiodora ~ "Epena"(High Risk)

as well as...

Areca catechu ~ "Betel Nut"
Calea zacatechichi ~ "Bitter Dream Herb"
Catha edulis ~ "Khat" (High Risk)
Erythroxylum coca & E. novagranatense ~ "Coca Leaf” (High Risk)
Pausinystalia yohimbe ~ "Yohimbe"
Mitragyna speciosa ~ "Kratom" (High Risk)
Piper methysticum ~ "Kava Kava" (High Risk)
Ilex guayusa ~ “Guayusa”


*All plants labeled as "High Risk" are in dire need of cultivation*

I am Teotzlcoatl, older cousin of Quetzalcoatl. My most famous physical incarnation was Nezahualcoyotl, but I have taken many forms since the dawn of the cosmos. In this realm I manifest as multiple entities at a single time. I am many, I am numbered. I am few, but more than one. I am a multifaceted being, a winged serpent with many heads. We are Teotzlcoatl.

Interesting... I did not realise so many of the plants important to amazonian shamanic cultures are so high risk. Also did not think Mimosa was either. Well, I am doing my best to cultivate what I can in my London flat!! Yearning for a place with a greenhouse now tho... or a different climate.
BTW I just had a chacruna seed germinate after about 3 months. No idea if it is "True" or not.

I purchased live plants of Anadenanthera colubrina var. cebil from two vendors- Sacred Succulents and Green Man Gardens.

This is not to say that the plants are at risk in their natural habitat but that they are rare in cultivation or are at risk of becoming restricted by law.

However, some botanicals such as Lophophora cacti are endangered in their natural range and are in dire need of cultivation to save the biodiversity of the genus!
