Galbulimima belgraveana
Also called Pigeonberry Ash, White Magnolia
Galbulimima belgraveana is a large, magnolia-like tropical forest tree from Queensland, New Guinea and nearby islands, reaching about 27 m. It is a wild rainforest species rarely grown as a garden plant, so cultivation advice is limited.
Galbulimima belgraveana is a tropical forest tree with hallucinogenic properties. Its common names include agara, white magnolia and pigeonberry ash. It is native to Queensland, the Bismarck Archipelago, New Guinea, and the Solomon Islands.
At least 40 alkaloids have been isolated from the plant, including the muscarinic receptor antagonist himbacine and the opioid antagonist GB18.
The psychoactive constituent(s) responsible for the plant's hallucinogenic effects have not yet been identified.
