We even learn about one of the secret mechanisms that desert plants rely on in order to spread their seed: Myrmecochory.

I love this motto: _Take nothing but pictures from nature!_ Thanks for all you do, Manuel.. 👍🌵💚
My pleasure! Thank you and I’m glad you like it 🙏🏽🌵
I just put this Astrophytum on my wishlist 1 or 2 days ago, small seedlings are easy and cheap to come by here in NL. Great to see them out and about in mature form
It’s a stunning plant! I’m glad you liked it and hope you can get one soon!
Wooow amazing video and amazing cactuses❤❤❤thank you for taking me to Queretaro. Greetings from freezing Czech republic
Oh wow must be so cold there now!! Thanks for watching 🌵🌵
Crushing it Manuel, there's a foot of snow outside and my brain/soul really appreciates the desert time. I've never seen one in the wild but wondered if you've crossed paths with any MYR-OR or other Astro hybrids while down there?
I’m glad you’re enjoying it! Thanks for coming along! I haven’t seen any hybrids partly because I’ve visited type localities for all species, where they don’t share range with one another but I’d love to see some hybrids for sure!
Oooooohhhh wwwooowww!!😍😍😍😍😍I'm jus fascinated by these natural wonders!!! Tqvm for doing d leg work and undergoing hardships jus to get us these wonderful pictures/videos!! ❤
It makes me happy to see you all fall in love with them. Thank you for watching!! ❤
Totally up my alley as a plant lover, desert plants have become more and more interesting to me. Thanks for taking us along!
My pleasure, I’m glad you love plants! Especially the prickly ones 😊
Wow that is a magical mountain, all the cactus look so healthy and beautiful, the great variety and the most beautiful Astro, thanks for sharing!!!
It was amazing to see so much variety on just one mountain! I’m glad you enjoyed it! 💚🌵😊
Amazing videos, Manuel. I’ve always been fascinated by these plants in habitat. Any plans of visiting Mammillaria bertholdii and luethyi habitat?
Thank you! Definitely, I’m a fan of those as well so hopefully soon I can show them to you all!

Thanks for sharing another great video. Generally speaking, do you normally visit government lands or private?
Thanks for watching Bill! I do visit both, although I prefer private land as nothing deters poachers like an armed guard 😅

Genuine question here. What is the consensus on seed collection for the average enthusiast? Obviously people tend to abuse everything but is it generally acceptable to take a few seeds and or seed pod? any input?
I think it’s best to buy seed from cultivation and take nothing from habitat 🤓
Hello, I would like to ask if COPIAPOA CINEREA can survive a water outage for more than 2 months?
I want it to grow slowly like the place it was born in, but not die.
Your channel is nice. I agree we shouldn't take endangered cacti, but I do harvest wild prickly pear here in missouri to grow so I suppose I'm a hypocrite
I don’t think you are, since those grow very fast and aren’t endangered! Thanks for watching. Welcome 📺
Many cacti have medicinal uses. This is the sorrowas as does the San Pedro cacti. Many different uses.. so beneficial to the human spirit!
Better understanding of what there and it's there for us to make use of.... Many benefits from the great wonders of the San Pedro cactus... Beautiful is the only way i can convey my experience... BEAUTIFUL!!
They’re amazing but truly there for their own sake, not for us to use and take 😅 Saddly everything humans see worthy of “use” gets destroyed instead of protected.
I really enjoyed seeing those Ariocarpus and Astrophytums. How cold does it get there in Queretaro Miguel? I grow Ferocactus glaucescens and they can withstand temperatures down to 17℃ surprisingly, and there are some big ones growing in my neighbourhood under house eaves.
Thanks Newman! Who’s Miguel? 🤔 😅
