Psychoactive African Dream Root Silene capensis Seeds

Silene capensis Seeds

Silene capensis is a tender perennial native to Eastern Cape South Africa where the “Xhosa” regard it as a sacred plant with the ability to induce remarkably vivid and prophetic lucid dreams. Silene capensis is regarded by many as a more powerful inducer of lucid dreams than even Dream Herb (Calea zacatechichi) or African Dream Herb, Entada rheedii. The plant exerts only minimal alterations in waking consciousness, yet the effects upon the dream state can be profound. Silene capensis is a tender perennial which prefers moist locations and sandy soil. It will do well in the garden with regular watering and also makes a fine night-blooming container specimen.
