  • I am very very excited to share my visit to the UC Davis Botanical conservatory with all of you watching around the world. I was fortunate enough to be able to take an in-depth tour of the facility with Ernesto Sandoval who is both the director and curator of the greenhouses there. What a amazing gift it was. I have only listened to Ernestos talks you can find online so to be able to hang out with him very indeed special. There are so many interesting plants in the video I know you'll love it! Thanks for being here.
    THE QUEST CONTINUES...
    Special thank you to @crazy4cactus for being my road dog and camera man on this epic quest. I can't imagine doing it without you homeboy!
    Thanks to Artie for making the connection between Ernesto and I, Thanks man!
    I usually produce all the beats in my videos as music has always been my first love however this go round I used a few tunes from www.epidemicso...
    Last but not least please check out my online merchandise shop and grab a tshirt or hoodie if you'd like to support the channel.

    I live in TX and water all my cactus and succulents everyday or two. I make my soil and it is a balance or rich+ sandy loam+ compost and shale and my plants are dreamy and happy...unless I am trying to stress them to make them have more color.

    I'm vegan and I don't really care about carnivorous plants. You can't force things to be what they aren't.
    Edit: can that nectar be used like honey? Or refined into syrup for use in cooking or drinks or something?
    What a cool person to interview.
