Fantastic video! Your patience is remarkable. Thank you for the time that you are willing to share on your adventures.
You’re very welcome! Thanks for watching ❤
Really enjoyed the journey, Manuel.. fascinating how important the nurse plants are too. It's amazing how cacti adapt to such harsh environments and it's a treat to get to see them in the wild, thanks to conservationists like you! 👏👍🌵💚
I’m glad you enjoyed the trek, and thank you for watching ❤ Nurse plants are the real MVPs. Without them, life in the desert would be near impossible for any cactus or mammal 🤓
I can very well understand your determination and single minded pursuit of dis particular specie of cactus. Wat a eureka moment!! YES!! 💪
Thanks for joining our adventure!!
keep up the good work
Thank you, will do! 🌵🌵
Incredible 🤩🤩
Thank you for joining us! 🤗
Is there also more organic matter in the soil around the nurse plants I wonder if they provide nutrients
Definitely since the mother plants drop their foliage and it breaks down and turns to organic matter in the soil 🤓
You should come to Peru! I can take you to spots with more than 12 genus in one place... Only 3 hours from Lima!
I’ve been hoping to meet someone from Peru!! I’d love to go see cacti there especially trichocereus 🤓 Are you on instagram so we can talk?
@@RareCactus I actually sent you a message there 10 minutes ago, same name, I'm a biologist, although I don't specialize on plants I do love cactus and I know people that literally study them here, would love to introduce you and go with them as well!
@@RareCactus oh we can definitely find trichocereus man! I was just in the field yesterday in a not favorable spot and I still found 3 species and flowers, you'll have a blast here!
@@MichaelExplorer that’s amazing man I’ll reply via Instagram thanks for reaching out!

Thanks for the visit! 🌵
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching
