Explore Our Psychoactive Seeds Collection

Our Seeds category brings together botanical varieties from different regions, including species associated with LSA-containing seeds, MAOI-related ethnobotany, traditional tobacco cultures, African botanicals and psychoactive cactus traditions.

LSA-Associated Seeds

Some seeds are known in ethnobotanical literature for naturally occurring ergoline alkaloids, including LSA. The best-known examples include Morning Glory (Ipomoea violacea), Hawaiian Baby Woodrose (Argyreia nervosa) and Ololiuqui (Rivea corymbosa).

These plants have distinct botanical identities and geographical origins, so products should always be evaluated according to their exact species rather than their common name alone.

Morning Glory Seeds

Morning Glory (Ipomoea violacea) is a climbing plant belonging to the Convolvulaceae family. Its seeds are widely recognised within ethnobotanical literature and are also valued as an ornamental plant species. Our collection may include selected Morning Glory varieties and seed quantities depending on current availability.

Hawaiian Baby Woodrose Seeds

Hawaiian Baby Woodrose (Argyreia nervosa) is a perennial climbing plant native to parts of the Indian subcontinent and has become well known in ethnobotanical circles.

The plant produces distinctive large seeds. Product pages should be checked for the exact botanical identity, quantity and current availability.

Ololiuqui Seeds

Ololiuqui, commonly identified as Rivea corymbosa, is another member of the Convolvulaceae family with a documented history in traditional Mexican plant culture.

The seeds have attracted considerable ethnobotanical interest because of their historical cultural significance and naturally occurring alkaloid profile.

MAOI-Associated Botanicals

MAOI refers to monoamine oxidase inhibitors, a category of compounds that can inhibit monoamine oxidase enzymes. Certain plants contain naturally occurring alkaloids with MAO-inhibiting properties.

Syrian Rue (Peganum harmala) is one of the best-known botanicals discussed in this context. It has a long history of traditional use across regions of North Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia.

Because MAO inhibition can affect interactions with medicines and other substances, these botanicals require particular caution. They should not be treated as interchangeable with ordinary culinary or garden seeds.

Syrian Rue Seeds

Peganum harmala, commonly called Syrian Rue or Harmal, is a perennial plant associated with dry regions extending from the Mediterranean and North Africa through the Middle East and Central Asia.

Its seeds have a long history in traditional botanical practices and are commonly encountered in ethnobotanical collections. Always check the individual product page for the exact format, quantity and product classification.

Other Ethnobotanical Seeds

The collection may also include botanical seeds that are not specifically classified as LSA or MAOI products but have cultural, historical or ethnobotanical significance.

Yopo Seeds — Anadenanthera peregrina

Yopo, or Anadenanthera peregrina, is a South American tree associated with traditional plant practices in parts of the region. Its seeds have attracted interest from ethnobotanists and researchers studying traditional South American botanical cultures.

Kanna Seeds — Sceletium tortuosum

Kanna (Sceletium tortuosum) is a succulent plant native to South Africa. It has a documented history within traditional Southern African plant culture and is now familiar in international ethnobotanical collections.

Mapacho Seeds — Nicotiana rustica

Mapacho (Nicotiana rustica) is a tobacco species with a long history of traditional use in parts of South America. Compared with common cultivated tobacco, Nicotiana rustica is a distinct botanical species.

Voacanga Seeds — Voacanga africana

Voacanga africana is a tropical African tree whose seeds have been discussed extensively in ethnobotanical and phytochemical literature.

African Dream Seed — Entada rheedii

Entada rheedii, often called African Dream Seed, is a large tropical vine found in parts of Africa and Asia. Its seeds have a distinctive appearance and cultural history within African ethnobotany.

Psychoactive Seeds by Botanical Type

When comparing seeds, it is useful to group them according to their botanical characteristics rather than simply by their perceived effects.

Morning Glory Family

Plants such as Morning Glory, Hawaiian Baby Woodrose and Ololiuqui belong to the Convolvulaceae family. Although they share botanical relationships, they are separate species with different physical characteristics, geographical origins and chemical profiles.

MAOI-Associated Plants

Syrian Rue is a commonly discussed example of a plant containing beta-carboline alkaloids associated with MAO inhibition. Its chemistry makes it fundamentally different from ordinary ornamental or culinary seeds.

Tobacco Species

Mapacho and common tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) belong to the Nicotiana genus. These plants have extensive cultural histories, particularly in Indigenous traditions of the Americas.

South American Ethnobotanicals

Species such as Yopo and Voacanga represent botanical traditions from South America and Africa respectively, illustrating the wide geographical range of plants found in ethnobotanical collections.

Cactus Seeds

Our broader Seeds category may also include cactus species such as San Pedro, Peruvian Torch and Peyote. These plants have significant botanical and cultural histories, but their legal status and cultivation rules can vary considerably by country.

Why Botanical Names Matter

Common names can be confusing because the same name may refer to different plants in different countries. For this reason, we recommend checking the Latin botanical name before purchasing.

Common Name Botanical Name
Morning Glory Ipomoea violacea
Hawaiian Baby Woodrose Argyreia nervosa
Ololiuqui Rivea corymbosa
Syrian Rue Peganum harmala
Yopo Anadenanthera peregrina
Kanna Sceletium tortuosum
Mapacho Nicotiana rustica
Voacanga Voacanga africana
African Dream Seed Entada rheedii
San Pedro Echinopsis pachanoi
Peruvian Torch Echinopsis peruviana
Peyote Lophophora williamsii

Checking the Latin name is particularly important when ordering seeds internationally because common names may not provide sufficient botanical precision.

Seeds for Botanical Collectors & Cultivation

Seeds can be an interesting way to explore plant biodiversity and learn about unusual species from around the world.

Depending on the species, cultivation requirements can vary significantly. Factors such as temperature, humidity, light, soil composition, drainage and germination conditions can all influence successful cultivation.

Before purchasing seeds for cultivation, research the species carefully and confirm that cultivation is permitted in your jurisdiction.

Some plants may also be subject to restrictions even when their seeds are not explicitly listed as controlled substances. National legislation can differ substantially, so availability through a shop should never be interpreted as a guarantee of legal cultivation or use.

What Are LSA Seeds?

The term LSA seeds is commonly used in reference to seeds from certain Convolvulaceae plants that naturally contain ergoline alkaloids, including lysergic acid amide (LSA).

Morning Glory, Hawaiian Baby Woodrose and Ololiuqui are among the plants commonly discussed in this context.

The chemical composition of seeds can vary according to species, genetics, growing conditions, storage and other factors. For this reason, botanical identity is more reliable than assuming that all seeds marketed under an LSA-related name have identical properties.

What Are MAOI Seeds?

The term MAOI seeds generally refers to seeds containing naturally occurring compounds capable of inhibiting monoamine oxidase.

Syrian Rue (Peganum harmala) is a well-known example in ethnobotanical literature.

MAO inhibition is pharmacologically significant because monoamine oxidase is involved in the metabolism of various naturally occurring neurotransmitters and other compounds. Consequently, MAOI-containing botanicals can have important interactions with medications and other substances.

They should therefore be approached with considerably more caution than ordinary ornamental seeds.

Traditional & Cultural Heritage

Many plants in this category have long histories of human interaction.

Morning Glory and related plants have documented cultural histories in Mesoamerica. Tobacco species have played important ceremonial and social roles among Indigenous peoples of the Americas. Syrian Rue has traditional associations across regions of the Old World, while Yopo and other South American botanicals have their own distinct histories.

Understanding these traditions requires recognising that plant use differs between cultures, communities and historical periods.

Traditional use should not automatically be interpreted as evidence of medical effectiveness or safety.

Product Formats & Quantities

Legal Considerations for Psychoactive Seeds

The legal status of psychoactive plants and their seeds varies between countries and can also depend on the specific plant, constituent compounds, preparation and intended use.

European drug policy is not completely uniform. The EUDA maintains information on national drug laws and notes that countries can adopt different approaches to psychoactive substances and plants.

For example, the EUDA's Salvia divinorum profile illustrates how national controls can differ substantially: some European countries control the plant or its active constituent while others regulate it under different legal frameworks.

Therefore, do not assume that a seed is legal simply because it is available online or permitted in another country.

Before ordering internationally, check:

  1. Whether the species is permitted in your country.
  2. Whether its seeds are subject to specific restrictions.
  3. Whether importation is permitted.
  4. Whether cultivation is permitted.
  5. Whether any constituent compounds are controlled.
  6. Whether additional customs or plant-health requirements apply.

The EUDA provides resources covering drug-related laws and national approaches across Europe.

Responsible Botanical Information

The products in this category are presented primarily from a botanical, ethnobotanical and educational perspective.

Psychoactive plants can contain biologically active compounds, and their effects and risks can vary considerably. Natural origin does not automatically mean that a plant is harmless.

In particular, botanicals associated with MAO inhibition may interact with medicines and other substances. Anyone considering such products should research the specific species carefully and seek advice from an appropriately qualified healthcare professional where necessary.

Do not assume that historical or traditional use establishes modern medical effectiveness.

Keep seeds and botanical products away from children and store them according to the individual product instructions.
