You crack me up when you laugh at the end of the video...about calling it RicRac! 🤣 I'm looking into adding W. imitans and D. anguliger so that I will have all four featured in the video.
What a great video! I was never interested in fishbone/ric rac cacti, but your explanations of the different plants that share this common name was so fascinating! I'm glad your hunt for W. imitans was successful. I hope it grows like crazy for you and you can become like the Johnny Appleseed of this plant! Lol. p.s. sorry you got Covid; I'm glad you are feeling better now.
Really wonderful video! It's really amazing to see other collectors share their experiences with these unique species. Any plans to prop and share with others one day? Hopefully, if it ever were to disappear from the wild, there would be enough ex-situ to help restore these plants. This species is so cool!
Ironically, I'm growing several plants prepared to out-do the other in size BECAUSE I saw "fishbones/ric rac" growing out of a LEGO skeleton face storage container - turned into a hanging planter - several years ago. I impulsively started collecting LEGO to play with a few months ago. (#AFOL ) Joining the plants in an attempt to take over the house! :)
I literally found that listing on Fairchild’s site and was wracking my brain thinking if I had a Florida friend to attempt something similar 😂 alas, no Florida friend on the correct side of the peninsula.
@@StalkerNaturaliste They do what, as usual? All I hear now is folks saying how they have/had COVID, never the flu or common cold anymore. I just find this strange.
@@1neAdam12 a lot of people had "common cold" wich is mostly Rhinovirus or older (now endemic) Coronavirus stains. The flu target very specific parts of the population, if you are not old or working with old people you dont hear a lot about flu and most people around you who get "flu" get a common cold. I dont know where you are but in Europe we get every year vaccination campains against the flu and most elderly are covered, kids get it without simptoms and young people are almost immune to it. Covid-19 spread faster and was more deadly than most common colds or flu stains (but the spannish one) so we still keep an eye on it, but it's now evolving into another, less dangerous endemic "common cold". Since it also has more specific symptoms than other Coronavirus you will hear about it all your life, it's part of our environment now.
What I think is weird is leaving ridiculously shady comments about things you yourself aren’t experiencing. I get this was geared at people being dramatic every time they cough, but it’s a comment on my video and it is shade being thrown at me. I’ve had flus plenty of times in my lifetime. This is the first time I’ve had Covid. It was scary waking up in the middle of the night drenched in sweat, and entirely losing my sense of smell and taste. It’s not like a stuffy nose kinda can’t smell, it’s like I put my nose right up to a bottle of isopropyl alcohol and smelled nothing at all. You don’t know me, and I certainly hope neither you or anyone else gets the “influenza” I just had 😉.
@@EpiphyticCacti my mother in law's smell was permanently damaged. She recovered but she can't enjoy what she enjoyed before anymore. I hope you case isn't as difficult.
Man, the more I learn about Weberocereus, the more I love them and want to collect them all! Great video!
Thank you 💚🌱!
Loved it. What a beautiful specimen. I have the others mentioned but not this one. None of them flowered yet. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you 💚🌱
One of the four fascinating fish bone cactus groups:
Discocactus anguliger
Selenicereus anthonyanus
Epiphyllum chrysocardium
Weberocereus genus

Thank you 💚🌱 - I need a little army of W. imitans-es 😂

What happened to influenza? No one ever seems to get diagnosed as having it anymore. Weird. 🤔
They do, as usual.
