Genus: Lespedeza Species: bicolor

[mr.smiley]

Lespedeza bicolor (under 5-MeO)
Our assays did not detect any alkaloids in any parts
during the first year. (1994) We did detect 5-MeODMT
in both seeds and mixed seeds and pods. (May 1995) tlc by
J. Appleseed. See comments under DMT as we may have mistaken
the two as tlc used Ehrlichs.
Our reports of the occurrence of 5-MeO-DMT in the
genus Mimosaare the only reports of this alkaloid
in this genus that we can locate

Lespedeza bicolor (under DMT)
Lespedeza bicolor“Bush clover”
Positive tlc assays in seeds, seed pods, stem-bark and roots.
co-tlc by Appleseed. Seeds/seed-pods showed same alkaloids as stem-bark but
darker and with 3-7 additional bands. (Seeds & pods harvested summer 1994)
August stem-bark showed light band

Iv been researching into this, all i can find elsewhere is that just the leaves and roots n such contain the goods.
Has anyone read or found any more material on the subject? Im looking at working with the seeds, they are cheap and available.
Any advice and/or references would be greatly apreciated:grin:

Will be conducting similar studies with this plant this year so hope to give you some info at the end of the season.

I don't have any concrete data to provide,
but just want to mention that this plant 'spoke' to me several years ago...

I was walking in the woods near my house, and this plant said "Hey You... yeah, YOU! Come here and check me out!"
I was a bit startled, because I'd never been clearly spoken to by a plant that I hadn't yet ingested.

Upon returning home, I looked it up and discovered it to be Lespedeza bicolor, with a probable tryptamine content.

Still haven't gotten around to harvesting any, but I've never had a living plant so directly address me, before or since.
So take that for what it's worth!

Good luck with your research :thumb_up:
