Gael and Willow,

I agree that HerbalGram is the best place to look for a photo of Yohimbe.  I
was not successful in finding a back issue, but Mark Blumenthal is probably
still Executive Director of the American Botanical Council (ABC) and editor
and publisher of HerbalGram.

As of a few years ago ABC's address was:

 PO Box 201660 Austin, Texas 78720.  Phone: 512-331-8868.  Fax:  512-331-1924.


He occasionally comes to SEB meetings and one of the pharmacognosists in the
group I worked for at UIC is on the board for the magazine.  I've talked
with Blumenthal a couple of times and consider the magazine a reliable
source of information.

A less reliable source of information, but with great photos of "drug
plants" is High Times.  It wouldn't suprise me if they've run something on
Yohimbe.  If HerbalGram doesn't have one you might as well try them.
