Yep, head to Jamaica or Amsterdam for that kind of stuff, not worth the risks here.

I got your message, no need for caps.

I guess you didn't read my message. I am asking if anyone knows the name of a tree.

Rocky, don't be so uptight.

Default piptadenias

It is still a drug, a hallucinogenic.

In the Caribbean Islands and in South America, piptadenias are known by various popular names, such as cebil, coboba, cohoba, cojoba, curupa, curuva, hataj, kurupa, kurupayara, niopo, nupa, ñopo, parica, vilca, yopo, yupa.

I have never looked for the tree, so I cant even tell you if it exists in the DR.
