Thanks for commenting on my video because it led me to yours. Your excitement is palpable and thanks for sharing this amazing moment.
Oh and a new subscriber!
@@EverythingPlants thanks a lot I’m glad you liked the adventure! Welcome to the channel 🌵🤓
Mexico is so amazing! I remember as a child visiting my grand parents driving behind in the bed of an OLD pick just like that. Viva Mexico, Jerez, Zacatecas!
Viva Mexico hermano! 🇲🇽
Thank you so much for the miracle! For this brave journey! For showing those who can't go there such beauty. It's very far from me, I live in Russia, but I'm with you and I'm happy like you!
Thank you for joining us! And you’re very welcome, we love these plants and want everyone to love and respect them as well ❤
10:00 This guy has the best job in the world. Lucky person. Thanks for sharing the video.
What a magnificent treasure trove of Aztekium. The colour of the flowers is stunning.
It really is! Thanks for watching 🌵
I absolutely love seeing the joy on your face!!! What an amazing find and seeing it bloom is icing on the cake. Thank you for taking us along with you. With each new episodes, I am completely blown away by the beauty of Mother Nature.
So nice of you, thanks a lot for watching and joining our adventures 🌵 I think the more people fall in love with them, the less likely they’ll be to remove them from the desert 💚
I've never heard of this cactus before. They are so delicate and gorgeous.
Thank you, for sharing the struggle to find them. Thank you, to the locals who gave you access.
You’re very welcome, they’re so amazing 🤩
What an adventure😌🙏💞I felt your joy! I'm so glad those Aztekiums are protected. Wonderful episode
Thank you! 😊🌵🌵
beautiful cactus. thank you for share this video.
I’m learning Spanish because of your videos! My dream is to go out in habitat and see all these wonderful plants in Mexico! Amazing video as always, keep up the good work dude!
Nuevo Leon is so beautiful! You made me add it to my bucket list! More power to you, brother!
Love from the Philippines 🇵🇭
I’m glad you liked it Patrick! Thanks for watching
Brilliant as always Manuel 😎So glad you found the plants after such a monumental effort, well done to all your team 😊🌵🌵
Thanks so much for coming along!!! It was truly amazing to see them finally ❤
What an incredible, amazing, difficult journey to find this beautiful plant. ❤ Thank you so much for sharing your expedition. You are totally badass. 🌵 I enjoy your excitement and enthusiasm.
You consistently get jaw dropping shots. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
Wow, thank you! Glad you enjoyed it 🌵
Incredible! Thanks a lot for your hard work!
Wow 😲. That brings the phrase " looking for a needle in a haystack" to another level. Thought you weren't going to make it at one point 😂. The scenery was breathtaking. Well done Manuel 👍
Thanks my friend! It was a close one, but we made it! 😅
Beautiful landscape, wonderful flowers! 🌺👍💚
Thank you! Cheers!
It is really worth watching! Thanks for sharing! And your full of emotions video makes us feel life! Thanks again!
Glad you enjoyed it! thanks for coming along 🌵💚
Love your dedication & passion. It truly is a beautiful cacti ❤❤🇳🇿
Thank you 🙏🏽 It was a dream come true for me to see that tiny thing 🤩🌵 Welcome to the channel, Heather!
Once again, amazing video. There’s not very many like this I can find. You should have so much more followers. I want you to make money so you can make more trips, and work with people to conserve endangered species. I try to talk to everyone I know about cacti/succulents and I just bore them and they think I’m a weirdo. But whatever! Did a wonderful job putting this together! Mad respect and ❤️
Thanks so much my friend! We just started this journey about a year ago, so I’m very happy to hear people really like these videos! Thank you for your support! If you could repost our video links on your social media, it greatly helps us spread the word 💚🌵
More people really need to check these videos out. Outstanding one! This remote area of Mexico is so beautiful with it's totally spectacular rock formations and plants. As Jeremey Spath has pointed out, some areas of Mexico that would be national parks in the US are open land or some one's ranch property. So many undiscovered plants are out there in Mexico. Keep exploring for us Manuel.
Thanks for coming along! I think it’s best these areas are wild or private in Mexico because unfortunately the last Lophophora locality in the United States inside a national park was extirpated (from a national park). So it seems the only thing that can save these beauties is lack of access. 😅
Another incredible episode! Thanks for bringing us on the journey, mate😁👌
Thanks for tagging along my friend!
Awesome video Manuel and what a trip. To see these plants in habitat must be all inspiring. It inspires me to buy more cacti and expand my collection. Greetings from Thailand.
Thanks Alexander! Go for it, cacti make us happy ❤
места здесь и правда красивые...бро, спасибо за видео!
Я не говорю по-русски, но спасибо!
great episode! Thank you for ur indredible video and education about cacti
Thanks so much! Welcome to the channel, more to come soon 🌵💚
Those are beautiful cacti but of coarse my weird ass is more interested in the moss or fern that's growing along side it. God forbid I just go with the flow lol
Te banco a muerte, amigo como siempre siguiendo tus aventuras, yo tampoco lo hubiera dudado de ir ,te re felicito,como siempre un fuerte abrazo, desde Argentina!!!
Muchísimas gracias Javier! Saludos y nos vemos pronto en Argentina!
Gracias amigo saludos y gracias por acompañarnos 🌵🤓
Amazing,, carry on the good work.
Many many thanks 🙏🏽
Wow great video my friend, thanks for sharing 🌵
How big was the biggest valdezii you saw, and did any of them have 6 ribs?
Thanks a lot for joining us!
Es un gran sentimiento de esperanza que exista todavia el A. Valdezii en estado silvestre, tengo la esperanza que tambien el Caput Medusae, Obregonia, y Turbinicarpus Nieblae existan aun en la naturaleza. Saludos desde Reynosa Tamps
Hola Rubén! Compartimos ese sentimiento de esperanza! Pronto iré por caput medusae 🌵💚
@@RareCactus Seria extraordinario tener certidumbre que aun exista una colonia de Medusae.
amazing! 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Mark! 🌵
magnifique , merci
Merci à vous ❤
Incredible! I also have some grafted valdezii(grow from seeds). They are producing seeds~
Amazing! Keep germinating those seed 💚🌵
One of my friends even crossbreed valdezii with ritteri, and germinate those seeds, the baby looks amazing~@@RareCactus
@@OKPence90632 wow really? I would be pretty skeptical that it’s an actual hybrid. Do you have photos? 👀
