Desmanthus leptolobus

Desmanthus leptolobus, known as prairie mimosa, prairie bundleflower or slenderlobe bundleflower,[2] is a flowering plant of the genus Desmanthus. It is native to Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas and has spread Missouri and New Mexico.[3] It is often locally abundant over large expanses of rolling prairie.[4]

Uses

Root bark of D. leptolobus has been found to contain a psychedelic compound called N,N-DMT and other related tryptamines. While its only reported quantitative analysis found concentrations of 0.14% of N,N-DMT (lower than has been found in Desmanthus illinoensis), one person documented a "subjectively stronger response" than D. illinoensis.[5][6] Desmanthus species have been found to have variable concentrations of N,N-DMT.[5]
