I was mind blown when I went to miles2go back in 99, still have some of plants. When I heard the term slinggrown I realized that I have cactus cuttings that have gone unpotted for 2 + years. why not five in South texas? putting them in a sling and watering them is one more way to get it done. I have a 50-year collection of cssa journals and one of the articles from the '70s lamented buying cactus from a gas station in South Texas where they were sitting on the pavement in a pile and had been that way for months 25 cents or a nickel each. Wild collected barrel Cactus of mind-blowing dimensions were sold in department stores during the same time. Texas Farmers would pay locals to dig out cactus from their land with an antler, but they were called horse crippler Cactus for a reason. In many ways Cactus are perceived like snakes, or spiders, an irrational loathing. So cool to geek out with you guys
1:10 the brush hair mustelid would be the siberian weasel, its fur and brush hairs (longer hairs from the tail) are known as sable or kolinsky sable. they're widely regarded as the best brush hair for various applications (certainly most expensive), particularly varnishing and fine detail painting, including makeup. for pollinating, I'm sure that a good synthetic sable imitation brush would be good enough, or a squirrel or squirrel imitation brush - squirrel is less expensive, wouldn't stay relatively pointy when used dry for pollination like sable, but it's softer and less likely to damage parts of a flower, and probably would hold more pollen because it's slightly curly.
I've always used q-tips for pollinating. I save them in labeled bags and reuse them for pollinating the same species of plant in other locations and for future use.
Yeah I just use old makeup brushes, most in my experience have fibers similar enough to my artist quality imitation sable watercolor brushes which also work. The sable production process is quite cruel and functions as breeding ground for novel zoonotic diseases and as a reservoir for extant ones
Chile's dessert is the "dryest", kinda hot in the day, cold as hell in the night. In Celsius you can get some 30 degrees easy under the sun and at night 0, even in summer. Depending on the altitude, under 0. Copiapoa is in every region where the humidity is relatively low, a common front yard cactus with Aloe and agaves
Strange seeing the extinct neobesseya id. I was hoping to hear about neobesseya a bit - it's been an intriguing genus to me as it has ties to my homestate, Nebraska and named after C.E. Bessey, a progressor for taxonomy and horticulture in the 1800s (although I know Joey's thoughts on dead white guy names lol). I believe most have moved into pelecyphora or escobaria but strange to think an entire genus was named after a man in a state that has nearly no cacti.
Notice some of these rare cactus at Wal-Mart sometimes. They have them with other succulents and cacti. Will look more carefuly. Thanks for sharing friend.
Your videos have inspired me to purchase several species of cactus for conservation work. Unfortunately can't verify the origins for them all, but i hope if they come from a poached linage that their offspring can be reintroduced one day to make up for it. Thank you for doing what you do! Current species: Aloe melanacantha Cylindropuntia hystrix Melocactus Aureus Echinofossulocactus Inermis Astrophytum asterias (wild type) Uebelmania Pectinifera Aztekium ritteri
I have to disclaim that im working at a seed producing nursery right now but instead of buying plants i recommend you to buy seeds. There are some seed vendors with data on where the mother plants genepool originated, for example "Lophophora williamsii, Shafter Texas" and these could be feasable for reintroduction. But reintroduction is not possible when the habitat got destroyed, for example Rhipsalis pentaptera (critically endangered), Mammilaria "tezontle" (extinct in the wild), ... Im growing cacti from seed since im 14 yo and its a learning process until you get best results, but there is a ton of information out there if you are interested in trying.
@@thevendingmachine2740 unfortunately, most endangered plants were originally poached, very few can be traced back to responsible collecting. If you think I condone poaching, you are heavily misconstruing what I said.
You got spiny guys, you got fuzzy guys, hell, you even got some grassy guys in there. Real banger of a video. Who do we gotta call to get you one of them honorary PhDs?
they're beautiful, thanks for sharing🌵 I really love your channel, and i try to show it, but my comments disappear- they're polite, so I don't know why ✌🏼💜
Is there a reason for most cactus and euphorbia to bloom within such short timespan, I would imagine that even though the climate is rough, that the flower would still be worth continuing to bloom for at least another day to have higher pollination rates.
In the middle of all the Steve Irwinism, we don't even get to TALK ABOUT what form implying habitat Means at ALL. Not that I have any opinion about the organization, though. And this is unfortunate because this is the one biggest theme that we HAVE in Evolutionary Developmental Biology, and it's "overfilling on itself" all the time. That's why other people look human (like me, or like other mammals which I might not resemble), too: [because] they're part of the same habitat.
The case of Turbinicarpus is a great example.... the tapering, snake-like base of the stem is a result of growing up through Calcareous Talus. In the case of Ariocarpus scaphirostris, the plant produces tubercles that resemble dull gray shale and mudstone with a rough texture because that is what it grows in. It's fascinating stuff.
Don't do this to me I love your videos and I have no doubt that this one is going to be just as awesome and informative as all the others, but I'm not gonna sit through 12 minutes of vertical video. I'm sorry, but VVS is an automatic dislike for me.
Holy moly cry me a river princess. If I gave a shit I wouldn't do it. This was an impromptu, unplanned filming. I wasn't planning on filming ANYTHING. If you'd rather I not upload anything at all then argue with the 1k people who enjoyed it.
@@CrimePaysButBotanyDoesnt ... I appreciate it. Miles is an incredibly knowledgeable guy when It comes to Sonoran and Chihuahuan desert cacti . He offers some of the best selections of plants from those areas. If you want to know about Turbinicarpus, Steno/Echinofossulocactus/Ariocarpus/Mammillaria, Miles is the man.
For anyone wondering where this is, it’s Miles2Go in Tucson, AZ
I have never seen a desert greenhouse like this, this is inspirational.
You'd probably love the Cactus Quest channel, it's a great addition to watch beside this one.. More private collections in greenhouses to check out :)
This guys collection is amazing. I’m 42 years old and he has plants alive that he germinated the year I was born. Just wow good for him.
9:26 "Fuster cluck" lmao
Love how you guys just talking on top of each other. Both of you are very excited to be here.
9:27 Moment of appreciation for the name “Fustercluck”
Thanks for another awesome video Joey.

Cheers Joey, very enjoyable greenhouse... so much diversity. 12:17 was the jaw-dropper for me, very cool. ✌🇦🇺
Those are some real nice cacti Joey. Thanks for sharing!
Really cool. Would have been so fun spending life doing something like this.
Loved it, cactus growers are a different breed.
I fucking love hearing two nerds talk about the thing they are into.

Thank you for all this cactus content, feeling truly blessed right now.
Im amazed by the diversity of cacti. I don't know they took so many forms.

Wait til you hear about all the Mexican cacti named after dead Europeans. Holy hell.
Ah yes the authentically Mexican surname: Leuchtenberg. At least they got George Hinton right
OMG the episode of my dreams.....love love love this guy's cactus dungeon......

Finally a vertical video for us shmucks takin a crap looking at our phones right now
Is this "green" house a wholesale seller or just a collection for posterity? I'd love to have one or two of these cuties in my home. Excellent video 👍
It’s Miles2Go in Tucson, AZ. He has an online catalog
Hey Cookies Cacti…just looked at your site, looks like some interesting cacti videos to explore! 🌵

Endless forms most beautiful and humans with an amazing trove of knowledge and enthusiasm. Can't ask for better.
Really cool. Thank you

how often do they water in a place like this?
Plant on 10:30 is Pelecyphora aselliformis.
Where does he sell from or are they used to plant out to protected areas?
I think you accidentally filmed vertically.
Settle down it was initially for a different venue. This wasn't a planned visit, but a drop-in on a friend of a friend.
@@CrimePaysButBotanyDoesntI didn’t mind it
I’m grateful for these videos in any visible format. This one rates up there with the one on evolution/Asterias 🌵
@@CrimePaysButBotanyDoesnt Still love you Tony, keep it up in whatever format you choose.
@@grant0617 thanks. I know vertical sucks on CZcams but this was all pretty imprompt and I wasn't planning to film as much as I did
holy shit!
mustelid hair bristles. tonights learning...
Wow😍
12 minutes of holdin my tv on end? I wouldn'a did it for anyone else.
