I dont think ? Ive ever seen P. umbellatum here but you never say never in this area......Im pretty sure ? P. undulatum is original to Oz tho extremely invasive to NZ.....but its got small white flowers with extremely (nice) aromatic wavy (undulating) leaves and can get huge! here commonly planting itself(birds) in both local native and yard scapes with no probs.......also got a HUGE Myoporum in the back yard and the ground cover version of that Myoporum has become one of our dominant planted roadside plants.

Cabbage trees (along with Aussie & NZ / Tasmanian Tree Ferns) have also always been common characters here in yards and dont think Ive ever seen any with the ability to escape here but we have a couple small groves bout 300 - 400 miles up from here along the NorCal coast which have become naturalized from escape up in the Redwood fog belt in open areas growing right along side the giant Coastal Redwoods (Sequoia) interestingly.....also seen large amounts of escaped Sacred Datura (Brugmansia) sanguinea in one area along the coast.

And aye !.....you want Eucs (Gums)......get a 100 ft here in a wink(not quite the 400ft forests of Oz) and are planted in every buisness, school, store, etc. landscape and Orange/ Avocado groves and at the right time of year you cant find one that doesnt (EDIT:have)the Common Sulfer Shelf Fungus(Laetiporus sulphureus) exploding out the bottom but exceptionally bitter on Eucs for some reason

So its not so much a special interest NZ and Oz plants as its just we got more of them here than yoall 


Just want to mention also that just because something has Psilocybin it doesnt mean it doesnt(love double negatives) have something in it that can kill you....there are for instance species of Inocybes which have been found to contain active indoles and which blue quite readily but is not something you would want to consider in the least with such a deadly group.....
