- We venture into a dry lagoon bed to look for the most remote locality of cacti in the genus Lophophora: koehresii. And we visit a new species of Ariocarpus for the channel: hintonii. Join us on this desert expedition as we try to find and document all 1800+ species of cacti in the world in hopes that if you fall in love with them and their ecosystems, you will fight to protect them!

I really enjoyed taking this trip with you, Manuel. A miserable, dusty road, many hours away from the nearest "somewhere", the hot desert sun beating down relentlessly.. *but your enthusiasm is contagious!* 😃 It was all worth it for sure.. I was overjoyed to see Koehresii in their natural habitat! 🌵💚 Thank you for doing all you do for conservation..
I’m glad you liked this one!! It was a real challenge to battle the sun but worth it in the end like all good adventures 💚🌵 Thanks for coming along!
Wow! What an incredible, tenacious cactus. Thank you for your videos!
Thanks again for your efforts and passion to make us aware of the natural beauty in your world.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching my friend 🌵
Thanks so much for all the effort you put into bringing these cactus habitats closer to people who can't visit them.
I'm currently growing a couple of koehresii seedlings and it's awesome to see those rare specimen in their habitat.
You’re very welcome my friend I’m glad you’re enjoying my videos, thanks for watching!
Lophophora koehresii the official peyote of the Branch Davidians.
Digging your habitat videos. Would love to see some wild Eriosyce down in Chile. You'll notice there isn't much UA-cam content on that genus, but they're just as pretty as Copiapoa if you ask me. Small and cryptic too so you'll get lots of videos while you search lol
Thank you! I did see many species of those beauties while I was down in Chile and I’ll be sharing those videos soon. I just want to grow this channel a bit more before I release them because the first ones I’ve posted only got a few views and the trip down to Chile deserves more attention in my opinion 😅 Thanks for watching!
Your shots are amazing! You are so fortunate to have the opportunity to see the cacti at their best in habitat. Thank you for creating awareness and appreciation for cactus. 😊🌵👍🏼
Thank you very much! I try to do my best documenting these beauties for people so they fall in love with them and protect them 🌵💚
Love your videos! Thank you for your work! 🌵
So nice of you, thanks so much for watching!
What you do is truly amazing! The video is very informative and educative.
As a cacti grower living in Asia, it’s really nice to see where these beautiful plants are from, how they grow in the surroundings.
The most part that I love about your video is the attitude you shown. Full of passion and care. The shots you took are great. They’re full of details with no rush.
Please keep it up and thank you. Your channel is my favorite lately!
Thanks so much for the kind words my friend and for watching. I’m happy to bring these beautiful habitats to people who are so far from them 💚🌵
Wonderful views and beautiful plants, I personally love ur videos man!!
Thank you very much for joining us on this adventure! On to the next one 🌵
Great video! I’m obsessed with lophs and I’m glad you could still see some in the wild. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Vera! I am as well haha thanks for watching 🌵💚
Good work brother, keep it up
Thanks a ton, will do! 🫡
Thank you so much for every your video. The epiphytic cacti on a tree was amazing, do you meet any other epiphytic plants on your way to cacti habitat? Tillandsia, orchids? It would be very interesting if you do just a few snaps of them 😅
My cacti are sleeping now and waiting for spring...🎉
You’re very welcome!!! I have! I saw some in Chile in the middle of the desert 🤩 that episode is still to come 🤓
Should have jotted down the coordinates so you coulda came back
thank you for the VDO🙏🌻💖
Thank you for your work!
Thank you so much. VERY interesting
You are very welcome 🙏🏽 thanks for watching
Great Video, thank you
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching
merci🙏
Merci à vous!
Exaclty, take only pictures form nature. NOT the plants. 💜
Exactamente, toma solo fotos de la naturaleza NO plantas. 💜
🙌🏽
Have you ever thought about growing the rarer cacti and planting them where humans won't inhabit? I know you'd need thousands of plants but adding to instead of taking from would be better than nothing. :)
Oh yes I agree, but my plan is to buy land with cacti already on it, fence it and hire armed guards. It’s the only way to make sure greedy monkeys stay out 😅
@@RareCactus I'll need to look for seeds over here and see what I can find. Was it you that told us that some Italians had to return a cargo of cacti to Mexico? No matter, it happened anyway. :D
