Galbulimima belgraveana is an hallucinogenic plant. Its common names include white magnolia.[1] It is native to northeastern Australia, Malaysia, and Papua New Guinea. Papuans (who tend to use this drug the most) boil the bark and the leaves together with another plant, called Homalomena[2], in order to make tea. This tea leads to a deep sleep, in which it is said that vivid dreams and visions occur. The plant itself grows to about 90 feet, it has no petals and its flower are a yellow-brown colour. It is similar to strong marijuana which induces a similar slumber like feeling.[citation needed] The tree is also used for its wood.[1]
