Acacia maidenii

Acacia maidenii, also known as Maiden's Wattle, is a tree native to Australia. It grows up to 15 meters in height, and the phyllodes reach 20 centimeters in length and 1 to 3 centimeters in width.

The bark contains 0.36% of the hallucinogen DMT as well as 0.24% of N-methyltryptamine. When smoked, the bark gives a mild hallucinogenic effect. It is also a common admixture ingredient to Australian Ayahuasca brews.
