- Heimia salicifolia
Herb of Life or Sun Opener
Two species
of Heimia are used as hallucinogens. They are: Heimia myrtifolia
Link. Similar to H. salicifolia, but much smaller, growing
only 3 feet tall. The narrow leaves are 2 inches long, and
the yellow flowers are 1/5 of an inch long. Native of Brazil.
H. salicifolia
Link. A perennial herbaceous shrub growing to 10 feet tall,
with narrow 3.5 inch long leaves. The flowers are yellow,
0.75 inch long, and are followed by a ribbed capsule. Native
from Mexico to Argentina.
Cultivation
and Propagation:
These Heimias can be grown outdoors in California and the
South. Elsewhere they may be grown as tub plants. Both prefer
a well-drained soil, but a good supply of water. Heimia seeds
are very small, and should be sown very thinly on the surface
of fine soil that has previously been firmed with a brick.
When dealing with a small quantity of seed, it is best to
plant them singly, spacing them an inch apart or more. Do
not cover the seed, just press them into the soil with a small
flat object. The flat should be watered only by a fine spray
or by perfusion from the bottom. Keep the flat somewhat shaded
and the surface moist until most of the seeds have germinated.
When the first true leaves show, begin exposing the flat to
more sun and let the surface dry between waterings. If you
have sown them too thickly, either thin out to an inch or
so apart or prick them out and space an inch apart in another
flat. Be careful while transplanting, as Heimia seedlings
have very large root systems in relation to their size. Seedlings
less than 0.25 inch tall often have 2 inch long roots. When
the seedlings are an inch or so tall, pot singly, or plant
them out to their permanent positions. Water thoroughly but
infrequently to encourage deep rooting. Heimia may also be
propagated by cuttings and layers.
Harvesting:
The fresh leaves may be harvested after the plant is established
well enough to replace the leaves.
