Most significant plants to humanity
    #18862226 - 09/19/13 09:49 AM (10 years, 4 months ago)

What in your opinion are the most significant plants & trees (ignoring food sources and at a stretch including fungii :tongue:) to humanity?

I'm talking in terms of medicine, society, recreation, spirituality and any other non-food way you may choose to use the plants around us.

To me, a couple off of the top of my head would be:

The Yew Tree (Taxus Baccata):



Some chemotherapy drugs (arguably one of the more valuble medicines in the human arsenal) are derived from the bark of this tree.

Quote:

Taxanes are natural and semi-synthetic drugs. The first drug of their class, paclitaxel, was originally extracted from the Pacific Yew tree, Taxus brevifolia. Now this drug and another in this class, docetaxel, are produced semi-synthetically from a chemical found in the bark of another Yew tree; Taxus baccata.





The Opium Poppy (Papaver Somniferum):



One of the oldest methods of pain relief, predating written history, the influence this plant has on all aspects of society is far reaching and varied, both in the positive and the negative, this plant has some effect on all of us at some level.


The tea flower (Camellia sinensis):



Being from the UK, it's only right that I include this plant. It's had a profound impact on our society in terms of trading, conquest and mentality. The way this plant is veneered here I assume is similar to the way American society appreciates coffee.

Quote:

Tea contains catechins, a type of antioxidant. In a freshly picked tea leaf, catechins can compose up to 30% of the dry weight. Catechins are highest in concentration in white tea and green tea, while black tea has substantially fewer due to its oxidative preparation.



Quote:

Tea also contains theanine and the stimulant caffeine at about 3% of its dry weight, translating to between 30 mg and 90 mg per 8 oz (250 ml) cup depending on type, brand[7] and brewing method.





What would you pick?

Edit:- Ignoring food sources :wink:

Wow, I did not know that site existed, I've been looking (albeit not very hard :tongue:) for something like that for a while.

Keep 'em coming guys, I'm curious to what people consider to be important :yesnod:.

Coffea. It is the shrub that coffee comes from. I feel that this has been a stable drug and all around the globe, people love caffeine.

Papaver Somniferum also comes into mind. While it has gathered a terrible stigma, its also done wonders medically.

On a personal level, I have been habitually using kratom for a year and a half. Through study, I have found no negative effects and stumbled into many physiological healthy effects. Along with this, it feels amazing. Mitragyna Speciosa.

Oh, missed the part where OP said food plants were excluded. Oh well.

Camellia Sinensis for sure even though Cepheus already mentioned it. The huge variety of things that that plant produces is just insane.

Also, nice to see you posting here more Cepheus. Always nice to see some of the people I associate with when I started coming here.

Quinoa is also a nice plant, so does manioc.

But they arent as significant to the humanity as a whole

Works amazing as mouthwash and wound filling all over the body (stops bleeding) and healing.

Spirulina - complete plant protein

Chlorella.

Bee pollen/honey/jelly

Maca

Cashew

Quinoa
Rhodiola

Astragalus

Tea
Goji
Tobacco (Nicotiana rustica)
Rhemannia

Ginsengs

cat's claw
Lemon Balm
Nettle
yohimbe
DMT from leaves and MAOI's like Syrian rue and Caapi (Ayahuasca).
epena virola
Bufotenine
Cannabis

Reishi (Duanwood)mushrooms and all medicinal mushrooms and psychedelic co-evolutionary counterparts of god; cactus, iboga, lysergics, etc.


--------------------
Favorite entheogen experiences in descending order:
1)Combo of oral DMT + smoked Bufotenine
2)Amanita (urine drank twice)
3)Mushrooms > Achuma 16"+cid(still need higher dose Achuma)> Cid (still need high dose)
4)Morning Glory-HBWR (+cumin, cinnamon aldehyde adducts) > Methyl chavicol (need more activators)
5)Salvia (need to try quid)


All readable matter in the above post is ficticious... any similarities to real life are purely coincidental.

Blessing.

Correct :yesnod:.

There's been some interesting suggestions in this thread.. it's quite surprising how many plants (or at least plant based products) are used every day in medicine and general society with little consideration to where it comes from.. another one that springs to mind is:

The Willow Tree (salix genus)



Quote:

The leaves and bark of the willow tree have been mentioned in ancient texts from Assyria, Sumer and Egypt[13] as a remedy for aches and fever,[14] and the Ancient Greek physician Hippocrates wrote about its medicinal properties in the fifth century BC. Native Americans across the Americas relied on it as a staple of their medical treatments. It temporarily relieves headache, stomachache, and other body pain. Salicin is metabolized into salicylic acid in the human body, and is a precursor of aspirin.




Keep 'em coming :hippie:.

I thought they were algae-related.  Source?

Favorite entheogen experiences in descending order:
1)Combo of oral DMT + smoked Bufotenine
2)Amanita (urine drank twice)
3)Mushrooms > Achuma 16"+cid(still need higher dose Achuma)> Cid (still need high dose)
4)Morning Glory-HBWR (+cumin, cinnamon aldehyde adducts) > Methyl chavicol (need more activators)
5)Salvia (need to try quid)


All readable matter in the above post is ficticious... any similarities to real life are purely coincidental.

Blessing.

Algae is still not a plant, its a single celled organism, ya nub.

How would humanity have survived had Hops not been around to preserve our beer on trips to India!?

More seriously,
Has anyone mentioned the Tea tree?
Its a great antibacterial/antiseptic and antifungal.
