I have seen it for sale in the Washington DC area at Jamaican groceries. However, I believe it is actually illegal to possess in the US, thanks to the Analog Drug Act.

I think it has something chemically related to DMT which is classified as a hallucinogen. Probably in some miniscule amount, but welcome to America. Odds are you could get someone down there to send you seeds and grow it yourself, though.
