Why they don't sell kratom, dagga, or blue lotus in herb shops?

I've always been curious why the most badass herb shops in Colorado that I've been to (or in any other state for that matter), where they sell bulk herbs, why don't they sell any entheogens. Especially the safe ones like Blue/White Lotus?!
Have any of you been to shops in the U.S. where they sell kratom, or wild dagga, lotus, kanna, or any of that stuff?
I've seen salvia in head shops so 
It would be so nice to just have to go down to a shop instead of ordering online. I also think it's a very profitable idea, so I might have to go have a chat with my buddies who run the herb shop down town.

"dr00gz" is the most annoying word I've ever seen.

It's probably a good thing. Whatever head shops sell ends up getting banned.

Yeah I don't think they should sell these plants in head shops, but more like in Apothecary's and herb shops. Maybe the shops I've been to just honestly haven't thought about it.
Another thing... I've been to many plant nurseries around the country and only one of them had a variety of entheogenic plants besides cacti. Theatrum Botanicum is their name, they're based in northern california, cool people I might add.
There's one nursery here that sells bridgesii, peruvianus, pachanoi, brugmansia, datura, nicotiana rustica, and a few other herbs. I guess I'm just surprised...
One of my greatest aspirations is still to open up my own nursery one day. I'm far away from that point, but I still want to accomplish that.

I, for one, am glad they don't
remember what happened to salvia once it went mainstream

I just don't see high school kids hittin up the local Apothecary to get fucked up. I see yoga instructors, older folks, and the occasional hippy. Now head shops, are a different ball game.
I'd be pretty pissed if every head shop started selling kratom and dagga because then they might be turned illegal just like salvia.

Kava's about the only thing that gives you a buzz that i've found in a health food/herbal store as opposed to smoking blends, salvia, and the odd purple sticky kratoms in the head shops

They sell blue lotus at the health/herb place here. They also have valerian and kava. No dagga or kratom though.

You're probably right with this statement skatealex2, if I had a legit apothecary business going, I might be a little paranoid about selling people something that might have some bad adverse effect.
I'm just gonna have to ask em when I see em. Thanks for the replies shroomerites
