Toni santos is a cultural storyteller and botanical history researcher devoted to uncovering the hidden narratives of cryptobotany and lost plant lore. With a lens focused on forgotten flora, Gabriel explores how ancient communities discovered, used, and ritualized plants — seeing them not merely as resources, but as vessels of meaning, identity, and ancestral memory.
Fascinated by mythical plants, vanished species, and secret ethnobotanical knowledge, Gabriel’s journey weaves through herbal manuscripts, oral traditions, and forgotten botanical practices passed down in fragments. Each story he tells is a reflection on the power of plants to heal, connect, and preserve cultural wisdom across time.
Blending ethnobotany, folklore studies, and cultural storytelling, Gabriel researches the plants, uses, and rituals that once shaped societies — uncovering how lost plant lore reveals deep interconnections between belief, nature, and survival. His work honors the healers, shamans, and herbalists who safeguarded this knowledge beyond the reach of written history.

-
The sacred role of plants in ancestral rituals
-
The beauty of forgotten botanical knowledge and uses
-
The enduring link between nature, culture, and myth
Whether you are passionate about ancient herbal traditions, curious about plant folklore, or intrigued by the mysteries of cryptobotany, Gabriel invites you on a journey through green lore and living memory — one plant, one ritual, one story at a time.
