Cactus Conservation in South Texas
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 окт 2020
- #Lophophora williamsii grows in South Texas on sandy loam soils under a light canopy of mesquite, and it has been cultivated and maintained by people in the Rio Grande Valley for thousands of years.
Sadly, these plants have seen their habitat shrink with each passing year, as more land gets bulldozed by private landowners who view the plant community that Peyote is a part of - Tamaulipan Thornscrub - as useless and expendable.. better used for grazing cattle or worse, building strip malls and tract housing. More of that anthropocentrism and plant-blindness which is smothering Earth's biosphere.
The landowner here is an owner of a land clearing company and member of the Native American Church. He has been “rescuing” these plants for the last twenty years, in many cases stopping his bulldozers to remove plants. He has by default created a sanctuary for this species (as well as #Astrophytum) , and they occur naturally on his property (see pic with 2 year old seedlings) too.
En route to filming we see a parcel he had just cleared for a client who was creating cow pasture. The land barren and the brush still burning.

Reminds me of looking for mushrooms in a horse pasture
🙏 keep up the good work and stay positive for the future
@@Mikeymonkey1971 Thanks Mike!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us 🙏
No psychedelic garden is complete, without a few gnomes gaurding over it.
Nice touch.
The gnome know all...
@@02Lemonhead nature tends to follow the path of least of least resistance
I posted another comment before reading yours and I see the video creator never responded. I understand, not fun being associated with drug usage if there even is any. That being said how does peyote compare to like shrooms or hell even LSD? Been wanting to try peyote which contains mescaline for a while now. As I understand it, it’s quite foul and might even induce one to vomit should enough be consumed.
@@SomethingtoappeaseGoogle-1024 Well, if I understood my lovely phd biochemist cousin right, the most crucial "problem" with peyoze consumption is that the dose for the "trip" is often near the lethal dose and each plant is an individuum with different density of ingredients, so, this might be the reason(s) why this consumption is handed down in the traditional way... cause uneducated people probably hurt themselves, besides f***ing up the plants.
@@KimChi-iy7jd its not hard at all to take a proper dose and extremely hard to overdose on peyote. Watch hamiltons pharmacopia. He eats a basket full. Unless youve tried it please dont spread misinformation. Thats what keeps plants defined as controlled substances.
I got permission from the land owner across the street to salvage from where he's going to put his drive & house in. I also cut & treated the Wisteria that has started to creep over there. Earlier this week, I got a guy to stop weedeating all the late blooming natives by showing him how many bees were visiting. Sometimes, ya just gotta speak up. Nothing ventured, nothing saved!
Major props to these folks for their efforts!
And major props to yourself as well!!!😊
I would love to let the native plants have there due... But the damnable city won't get off my back.
Katie Kane good work a lot of people are waking up but not enough
Thanks for doing that. Wish we had more folk like you.
@@AdmiralBob I've tried to educate my city, county & power company but it's hard to get them to change their ways. Unless it's a safety issue, I'd like to see more roadsides & right of ways left alone. Here in Georgia, DOT plants flowers in the medium of the highway in places so they MUST know it can cut down on mowing but they STILL won't accept an "untidy" natural growth. I have better luck talking directly to the maintenance crews themselves. I know they're given a job to do but they DO have some leeway. The herbicide salesmen surely bring lunch & other goodies to influence sales. Makes me sick to see nothing but ragweed & fireweed after they spray out an area. A strong growth of native perennials suppresses tree growth which is the desired effect but hard to get them to see this. Lots of good folks on this channel, maybe each one of us can help nature out a tiny bit! Peace to all who give a damn, we need MORE!
Thank you to Gabby and her family for saving these beautiful plants from destruction and giving them a safe home.
How can I get ahold of this family I am a Native American seeking to use this plant for medical purposes
@@brandonbarzini2679 there are a few licenced peyote sellers in Texas, but only people associated with the Native American Church are legally allowed to consume it in some states due to its role in Native American religious ceremonies. Look up if there are any licensed sellers and what their requirements for purchase are.
@Nina Jankowitz I was just trying to give some advice on how to obtain it without getting in legal trouble. Sorry if that offends you.
they have not saved all of the plants but just a few. It takes more than just one family.
I can save her
I'm quite glad that this little family is trying to rescue indigent native species of plants
@@02Lemonhead they got this thing now called autocorrect. Perhaps you've heard of it. Makes incidents like this quite common and not occasion for a condescending lecture (aka a condescecture).
Yes a species your ancestors tried to outlaw. How that has backfired and should have backfired way earlier but those Pagans sure thought they knew what they were doing.
Loved the local knowledge Gabi gave us in this episode and also how a self-professed loudmouth host was able to let her explain things on her own terms. Really great what is happening on that tiny bit of land. Thanks for sharing!
I love that you do not immediately dismiss the fauna. Snakes, cool! Spiders... niiiiice. Insects, awesome. It takes more than plants to make a habitat. Every animal and plant plays a role. My daughter is a newly educated science major. I turned her on to your channel. She loves what you do.
Loved meeting Gabby and the Tamaulipan thorn scrub garden gnomes lol. the ex-situ astrophytum andpeyote environment was stunning! I’ve never seen an indigo snake before, we have little rubber boas and western rattlesnakes in Oregon... Thanks for sharing :-D
looks like my home in Oregon
As Dineh' from Dineh' Tah Doh (Navajoland), I extend my greatest gratitude to this family for caring, and nurturing this holy sacramental medicine used in our ceremonies. We have cherished this medicine for decades, handed down from our elders how to properly use this medicine, and not to abuse it. Even when we journey to the holy gardens down to south Texas, and Mexico, we always hold a nighttime ceremony before we even venture into the garden to begin collecting the medicine. We have been taught to bless ourselves, and offer our prayers with smoking natural mountain tobacco to give thanks, blessings, good health, and pray for those who care for the medicinal gardens. I am in my elder years of 70, and have journeyed to these gardens treating it with respect during my visits. I have taught my children these same lessons, treat this medicine with respect, and to never abuse or use this medicine with ill intentions. TY for sharing your content. Aho'!!
A lot of aquarium keepers are getting rare fish/plants to breed/propagate to avoid the same thing to them. With their streams, rivers, and lakes being destroyed by humans, it's like a last ditch effort to keep the breed alive.
To y'all who liked this, y'all are the real troopers. Some of ya I'm sure are doing their research and doing what they can.
Hell yes! I currently have two species of goodeids that I am breeding both are critically endangered. Also keeping lophs and astros as well :)
Stop eating fish and animals will do much more than trying preserve something doomed to fail.
@@gesus44 that's just your projection not necessarily the reality concerning your second point. Nothing is impossible to achieve if the right ingredients are in play
Ex-situ conservation is becoming increasingly important as plant blind mankind blatantly continues it’s destructive behavior.
You have no idea how that shit gets under my skin. I go around the corner and some city council worker is just chopping some valuable plants blindly and it takes a lot to hold my tongue and vexation
My local county council spray glyphosate around stop signs and cross roads and we're left with a dead brown mess and at the same time they want to fine people who litter. Where's the sense in that?.

There's still nothing better than habitat conservation, because if you have little gardens that exist for the purposes of preservation, they're still artificially-created habitats. More and more, wildlife and plants become dependent on humans, and the amount of things for humans to manage increase and keeps getting more complicated. And when humans are gone, the plants and animals that people were 'saving' will go away too. In the end, the core issue has always been habitat loss.
I grew up in S. Texas, alot of it on my hands and knees staring at and drawing ants, spiders, horned toads and everything else that moved before I took off for Virginia to go to college. I never paid alot of attention to the plants but whenever you do a video from that area I recognize so much and want to get back on my hands and knees and fill a bunch of sketchbooks next time I go home.
Thanks for what you do brother, you encourage us all to pay attention to some magical shit we too often overlook. That's all, GFY bye
Its hard to spot them but plants are the bigger, green things between the ants and bugs. :) I wish you good luck, once you found some, you will see their beauty.
Well played.
@@jonathangehman4005 like a piano!
HA! Carry on
Hey I'm in VA now. Moved here from Louisiana
Oh awesome! I'm a rancher out in Duval and McMullen counties - lots of Leucophyllum frutescans on my spot, and a couple of odd cactus varietes too - trying hard to be a good steward.
Good on y'all, Michael. Way to go.
Put them on inat and obscure the location. The cactus guys on inaturalist are pretty quick to put ids on them.
@@CrimePaysButBotanyDoesnt I've been wondering if obscuring location worked well or not. I've been doing it either way.
Thanks
I'm always so impressed by the survival of plants in such dry environments. How they can survive with so little rain while most of the plants I grow start to suffer in soil and heat like you showed.
I've saved a lot of tortoises in my day. I tried to save one once, crossing a super highway but by the time I stopped it was already halfway across. It seemed to know speed was the only solution. I thought he would make it. But as I watched a car failed to avoid it and smashed it into pulp. But I have saved at least a half dozen other tortoises and snakes since then. The rule is always take them across in the direction they're facing. I wish our society would put in animal crossing places along the road to reduce the carnage.
One of my favorite things now, is seeing your new uploads after a long day at work.
Come home, make a drink, and watch the new episode of CPBBD on the porch with my plants.
Keep up the good work!
Altanic that's the best! Cheers
Hangin’ with your “gnomies” today, I see. Thanks for the presentation, and the insights. Always encouraging to see the commitment some people consciously make to nature.
I really like this local reporting type style, you should do it more often when it’s possible :)
I love that you pointed out the native Indigo Snake and Gopher Tortoise, too. These creatures (or closely related species) live all throughout the lower part of Georgia and parts of Florida. The gopher tortoise is considered a keystone species here because it creates habitat (lots of burrows) for a lot of species. I wonder if they're considered a keystone species in Texas too.
Please showcase more people or things that are protecting our flora! Its so inspiring.
Got a tray of 200 rio grande growing, i am Uk based, been growing Cacti a longtime, just cant mimick the wild grown though... Thanks for your time and youtube videos my friend 👌
Starr county: economically bereft, yet botanically bountiful.
I wish I could say the same thing about my wife...
@@MrEiht hahahahahaha
@@marxp956 I mean I could say it but it would be a lie. And why would I say something nice about her anyway???
@@MrEiht oh dear, you better find a way to fix it or like many men you will die younger cos of stress and unhappiness
@@nyakwarObat I am already old. I was born unhappy and remained it. Nile River bankx...a wicked place, init?
I have a few Lophophora williamsii in my cactus collection in the UK. It is not illegal here and fairly commonly available and grown here by cactus enthusiasts. They are a beautiful plant. This is a wonderful conservation effort. All mine are guaranteed grown from seed, not by me so far. I have seed to try next spring.
I find it crazy that it's an endangered species here in the US but it's cultivation for preservation is banned unless you get special permits and build compliant enclosures with multiple levels of security.
Meanwhile across the globe lophophora is revered as a beautiful decorative plant and rarely cultivated for consumption with zero legislation against it.
Jealous. Would love a specimen but the gov is against it. Ironic how much of it is in Europe.
36°C in mid October?!? wow. I'm sitting here in Iceland with temps just above freezing dreaming about better weather but jeez that is pretty warm.
Y'alls summers are absolutely freezing to our sensibilities.
70°F ..at night and our highest is 124°F....in Southern California

I can't help but fall in love with Gabby, "those are rare tambien." She is Puro South Texas Gold. I am so proud of her.
I randomly found your channel and love it! My great aunt and uncle who lived in Texas and loved the land and plants would have loved your channel, too. Thank you for sharing such wisdom. 🦋
You got all "safety first" with that tortoise and that was beautiful.
You are just... An absolute delight to listen to.
Please keep on with the good work. Great stuff.
What a sweet guy
Wow!!! Thats just a beautiful sight to see 👀 !!! Cactus 🌵 of Texas....the sight should be fenced in and kept as a sacred area! Beautiful!
Thank you so much for your efforts in protecting the sacred Peyote! It is truly an honorable effort that will be blessed.
Thank you to the owner of this land for protecting these rare and beautiful plants. Especially the Cacti. I know a lot of people want Peyote and really want to experience what it has to offer, but its making it harder and harder for the natural cacti to grow. This person is awesome.
I feel like this guy would have a seizure if he went to the South American rainforest.
He has a few videos of him down in chile and some other south american countries
😂😂😂
@@bongwater1885 Haha Hello Bong water that has to be the best channel handle 🔥me☝️BeWell and StaySafe ✌️
Valuable and informative, thank you for this. I run a succulent/cactus swap group (in Australia where our still unknown 400+ native species are endangered mainly by invasive species). We have all the same problems in particular with land and forest clearing; not even heritage forests are safe from our present government, not even the Great Barrier Reef for that matter. So we hear you and thank you for the work you do. Give love to landowner next time you visit
Gabby You and your family are doing a wonderful job.
At keeping
These little cactuses alive.
You are the good people for your works are rare and great. Thank you for your help keep the world a place to live.
Seeing this dudes notifications bring me instant genuine joy lol k gfy bye
Really gives me hope that we have people out there who see the value in nature and actively try to preserve what they can. Thanks for highlighting this amazing family farm.
Thanks Tony for the interview
Great to see what Gabbie and her family have done. Its nice to know there are still some pockets of goodness in this world.
What a beautiful santuary 🫶🫶🫶💚💜💚💜 mucho gratitud @ Gabriela y La Familia por cuidar a los Abuelitos 🫶🫶🫶🫶💙💙💙
Great, interesting video 👍Lovely to see that people are doing their best to preserve them
Thanks!
What a video and share..
Shouts out and respect to the OG presenting the video!
One hears there is not even that much Peyote left outside a few families,
the rare mountain side of the right region and a shaman or two.
So it gives me an overwhelmingly positive feeling to see this much in ancient medicine
in one location; given it took many deeds and actions to achieve and maintain.
- 1 - Love
Love your channel. thank you for teaching and all you do. Peace & blessings
Your my hero Benny and family.... Much love❤️
I'm so happy someone is saving out traditional medicines.
Thank you for your very well spoken tutorial. As a bioregional ethnobotanist ,i certaintly add much more to the herbarium. Stay blessed. I think you should visit my island on the gulf. Alot of carnivorous plants, ephiphytes evansii, and more. Plus an amazing long leaf pine forest....for now anyway. Called developers. Great interview. Yes, the Gulf gets verrry hot. Winters are stellar.

Wow, that's only like 45 minutes to an hour away roughly from where I moved to about 4 months ago. Glad to see you in this neck of the woods and great to know about local botany.
What a beautiful cactus!!!
I have always wanted to try peyote but never had the opportunity.
Great work preserving these lands
Wonderful vid. Thank you Gabby!
I’m gonna take this channel like a vitamin . Thank God for the Botanist keepin me healthy
Peyote's are blessed by God, look how this man tries to save them. Such a kind man.
awesome short doco - watched it a few times now great work man love your videos thanks for creating and sharing 🌵
That's a beautiful garden, buddy.
I've had Astrophytum and Peyote years ago, the lophophora bloomed, and even gave seeds that sprouted.
I guess that's unusual for outside cultivation here in germany.
I still have one of the opuntias with the yellow tiny spines I saw in the red/black pot standing outside my window.
But I need to bring my cacteae in the winter storage soon.
Thank you for the awesome video.
When I lived in Corpus Christi in the '80's and '90's I would occasionally spot patches of grey/green thorny stuff that were clearly habitat for native species, I found them quite beautiful. When I mentioned them to native Texans they had no idea what I was talking about.
Thank you for this video, more people need to be exposed to the realities of land development and conservation. It's easy to forget our own roll in these things, but hearing from people like Gabby reminds us deep urban jungle inhabitants that there is more out there.
this is an excelent video, the peyotes the most beatifull cactus plants in my opinion. thanks to Gaby and family for concerve this specie. greetings from Mexico
I’m full of admiration for what they, and you, are doing 🙏🏻
Nice nice, this is the coolest spot!
I'm so glad you didnt go back home, I wouldn't either... I didnt expect you to detour to one of my very favorite spots that you've shown us, at least its favorite in the states.
Stay safe man, thanks for the great content!
I haven’t been down in South Texas in a long time. I remember as a young kid thinking the miles and miles of mesquite and cactus was boring. And there was no development going on, it was all quiet ranch land as far as the eye could see. Sad to hear about all the clearing going on.
Thank god so much of the land here in AZ is reservation, because we would raze every inch of it for tract homes. Some buyers of custom homes will preserve and replant their lot's flora, especially old cactus, but most tracts are leveled without a care.
Same thing happening in my state, 99.9% of people dont even give af to plant anything even privacy trees are rare on those cheap looking houses
I had a dream of this video, it was so cool to walk through the cacti with ya. Thanks for sharing
Fantastic. After reading C.C. a lifetime ago I refused to touch our friend. Great lesson in conservation. I believe they will be here long after we are gone and gone for sure.
Beautiful, thumbs up to this family for there caring
Again young man excellent video
This type of land is so poor for agriculture, if ever there was someplace we should just leave wild, this is it.
Love this, glad to see that there are some people that care!
Reminds me of my uncle's Peyolotl garden. Many blessings, aho!
What a beautiful video 🌵🌵 thank God for people how care ❤️
Beautiful little ecosystem there, they're everywhere it's like another planet with those little green button's all over the place, the garden knomes was a lovely touch, little knome spirits protecting the gate keepers of other worldly experiences !🤣, Much love n respect to these people for helping save sacred plant species!😜💜✌️
If you ever had a mescalin experience you know why these plants are considered devine. If you ever had a Peyotle and see what they can endure and how they sit on their own throne you become a bit wiser too. No new age hokus pokus nonsense.
@Nina Jankowitz lol. I am way too old and too depressed for psychedelic stunts. I am glad I manage to smoke my medical herb.
love the video! thank you for the legit conservation information. I knew you were top notch when you mentioned population bottlenecks. Take care, from Canada!
In our very small suburban garden (both front and backyard) in the PNW, I try to plant as much local (regional and state local) natives as possible in with my non-native plants. Combination of native trees, alpine rock garden trees and plants, forest shrubs, and flowering perennials. Removed at least 70-80% of all the boring old grass lawns too.
I leave as much seed heads and plant material over the winter too, for wildlife. Some shrubs and plants have berries for birds; a native hazelnut for squirrels, tons of flowers for pollinators and hummingbirds, and native trees and shrubs for wildlife shelter as well.
I have some areas planted to resemble a native forest/woodland, some as an open native subalpine rock garden, and other areas with open woodland (sparse trees with flowering beds below). Most trees are young saplings, no more than a few feet tall.
I enjoy "collecting" native trees and plants for my garden in the same way people like collecting things. I get them from local native nurseries. I'm also an avid hiker, and want to have some of the plants and trees I'm familiar with in the mountains and forests here at home. Especially when it comes to the alpine rock garden and the woodland/forest garden, I'm trying to replicate their natural environment appearance as much as possible (and although I sometimes like to pair native plants that don't always grow immediately together in the wild, I still try to keep the overall theme/look intact...and, as mentioned above, I do enjoy collecting different native species as well).
Awsum! I have a passion for plant recovery too! Both onsite rescue when removing things for work or from junk piles at plant nurseries!
I'm from mcallen texas. Ur in a very beautiful area of south texas there. Great white tail hunting and just beautiful ranch land. The wildflowers bloom real nice depending on what time of year your there
Another wise guy adventure with my cousin Vinny!!!!
as a cacti and succulent lover pls tell that guy thank you for saving these wonderful plants
How have I only just found this channel?
And not even through RUclips, but via your advertisement on Facebook where you give a tour of the botanical survivors in the urban hellscape.
Been looking forward to this one! Thanks Joey!
I just found my new rabbit hole on you tube. Never would I thought this would be a thing I'd like watching so much. And learn in the process. In Florida here we have some stuff being wiped out. I have tried to by the lots by me to save but I couldn't get enough saved before they sold to someone from out of state. And we lost 3 gophers to "relocation" I've watched them for 13 years and now they are gone.
Great to hear you telling it as it is - your passion for these plants and ecosystems is infectious. Thumbs up to the folks who are doing their best to rescue as many plants as possible but it's devastating to see the wanton destruction of such precious habitats. there need to be far greater incentives to preserve them than there are to destroy them. Seeing Lophophora in habitat is interesting though - I'm in the south of Spain and have had success with propagating the seed of my original plants - they're constantly throwing up those little pink fruits. I guess the climate is pretty similar here too.
1 more sign that humanity and the rest of earth might just balance. Thanks for another great trip.
🙏bless that man, and your self. Love your work. 👌🙌💓
Wow. Loving your channel!
Gives me 1% more hope for humanity watching this
Same here but that only puts me at about 1.5% hopeful.
The fact this shit inspired me to start planting native plants puts me around 3 percent
I think I found my new favorite channel.
What a cool video highlighting a super important conservation principle. Being near the southern Appalachian, we have the spruce fir forest down here as a rare ecosystem. Would love to see you make your way thru one of those.
Glad to watch this video. Very nice.
My friend in Northern California is the long standing photo documenting human for this project. Good job Trout!
thank you for taking care of our sacred medicine from a member of NAC church 👍
wow!!!!
Nice presentation. Really nice farm!!!
Grew up in the north eastern portion of Pennsylvania, moved to western Oklahoma 10 or 15 years ago and the ecological differences between the two are staggering. Love you content ya filthy transient.

Thank you for the video. Really enjoyed it.
you are so cool! lol last part cracked me up as I have many times took turtles off the road or path. same with snakes.. thank you !
I would give anything to see that amazing garden! I have a few different kinds of lophs and tricos etc. I love seeing these sacred plants in their natural habitat where they belong.
I have a book in my collection, don't recall the title exactly, but it's Cactus and succulents in habitat and it shows them looking glorious surrounded by more natural beauty
I like that mission of saving and preserved this cactus specimen hope other people get motivated with such a great project
So good to see these plants being somewhat saved in their native land. Isn't it still illegal to grow peyote in the states unless you are native or use it for religion or something? Strange that I can grow it as a houseplant in Canada but Staters don't get that same privilege
Unless you are a member of the NAC and have a census card to prove Native heritage, it is treated the same as heroin and cocaine. The are a few people here in South Texas who have legal authority and license to grow it.
Whoah i had no clue it was legal to grow in canada.
I’ve got a bunch of Peruvian Torch growing at my place
Thanks for the pandemic content to keep us entertained 🤘🏻
Come to southern New Mexico, would love to walk with ya and pick your brain while learning about the landscape.
Currently working on a bee project at UTEP (Bee Biodiversity Research Group), using your videos as inspiration to keep going haha
When I first started watching, I had no clue what half the terms you use meant. Now when I’m watching, I know exactly what you’re saying and referring to. What a progression haha
Thanks again, safe travels 👍🏻
I'm impressed🤲💖I hope the conservation for the native cacti spreads
Appreciate you very much. For many reasons.
