If you wish to buy
Kratom, buy only VERIFIED Kratom and Kratom acetate
(resin), tested by both Daniel Siebert and another
well-known botanist. Be wary of the Kratom that is
appearing everywhere on the net; it's often inferior to
the Kratom from the well-respected online ethnobotanical
shops
IAmShaman and
Shaman's Garden. This same Kratom sells at
www.sagewisdom.org
for about $40.00/oz, but you can buy Mitragyna speciosa
from either for much less. We have had nothing but great
customer service from them and we have no complaints
whatsoever. We will
soon have experience reports and recommended dosages for
the dried leaf, the powdered leaf, as well information
about cultivation, seeds, resins
and acetate that is becoming more and more available
online...Kratom or Mitragyna speciosa refers to
the tree that is indigenous to
Thailand, and is to Thailand what the Oak or Maple tree is
to North America. It is a hearty tree that will tolerate a
wide range of conditions except freezing temperatures.
We cultivate the treasured "Rifat" strain, known for its
high Mitragynine content, and its characteristic "red
veins."
Mitragynine
isn't the only desirable alkaloid contained within this
plant; it contains a complex series of 14-24 alkaloids
that work together synergistically, and can only be
gathered through both a water extraction and an alcohol
extraction combined.
Look the the left and you will see images of the gorgeous
flowers of this plant; they look like some kind of "space
spikes" and can grow to be as big as a fist. We have
a close-up HERE. The
Mitragyna genus, part of the family
Rubiaceae, is found in
tropical and sub-tropical regions of Asia and Africa.
Asian Mitragynas are often found in rainforests, while the
African species (which are sometimes still classed in a
separate genus, Hallea) are often found in swamps. Most
species reach heights of almost
100 feet. Our private grove of trees have grown a
remarkable 4-6 feet per year; making it obvious that this
plant is getting ready to be a giant as it gets
almost as wide as it gets tall from a very young age.
In other words, when your Kratom tree is four feet tall,
it will probably be about 4 feet wide as well!

Thailand is a Southeast Asian,
predominantly Buddhist kingdom almost equidistant between
India and China. For centuries known by outsiders as Siam,
Thailand has been something of a Southeast Asian
migratory, cultural and religious crossroads.
Thailand has an area of 517,000 sq km, making it slightly
smaller than the state of Texas in the USA, or about the
size of France. Its shape on the map has been compared to
the head of an elephant, with its trunk extending down the
Malay peninsula. The center of Thailand stands Bangkok,
and Thailand has perhaps the most diverse climate in South
East Asia.
There are high mountains in the in the North where little
Kratom grows
(the southernmost extreme of a series of ranges that extend
across northern Myanmar and south-west China to the
south-eastern edges of the Tibet Plateau) to
limestone-encrusted tropical islands in the South that are
part of the Malay Archipelago.
These broad geographic characteristics divide the country
into four main zones: the fertile centre region, dominated
by the Chao Phraya River; the north-east plateau, the
kingdom's poorest region, rising some 300m above the
central plain; Northern Thailand, a region of mountains
and fertile valleys; and the Southern peninsula, which
extends to the Malaysian border frontier and is
predominantly rainforest. This lush rainforest is the home
of most of the Mitragyna trees. There are many more
