- On ashy white hills composed of volcanic tuff in Northeastern Nevada we find an interesting plant community lit up in bloom, filled with strange Penstemons, flowers that bloom at night and a tall yellow nectar-rich member of the mustard family, illustrating again how seemingly "dead" lifeless soils can cause the evolution of strange and wonderful plants that have evolved to thrive in them.

I'm in a wheelchair and appreciate all the tours you take me on. New appreciation for my gardens etc! Cheers mate!
If it makes you feel any better, humanity is stuck on a ball of mud and shit. Lol
@@MrGrombie how is that supposed to make anyone feel better? 😂 You stink at this...
@@randomconsumer4494 I mean… I guess mr.grombie is in the right place. In good company so to speak.
@Chris Campbell - that’s great that you garden at all. There’s a ton of “healthy” people that say they’d like to but don’t because it’s too hard.
Hats off to ya.
@@randomconsumer4494 it’s not about trying to make anyone feel better, we are on a ball of mud and shit, it’s our ball of mud and shit, the man just doesn’t know what it’s like to not be able to explore like this man, if all we got is our garden this type of internment is priceless, let the 12 yo’s figure it out for themselves
Same here. Use your time, read about biochem, molbio, biotech, and watch this channel. Later, it will all come together in your head, believe me.
Jesus Christ Joey, I never thought you'd really get into the grasses! Are you okay?
Different strains for different brains.
That's true what you said about fungus at about 20:23.
@Creature Rock brother where art thoug
@Creature Rock gotta know the players to play the game

Shoutout to the guy In Dana point that had a “stop humanity” sticker on the back of his car today
blasting this over the fireworks tonight. uughh I hate people. Thanks for the help tonight.
a vast majority are drone worker bee/ants, cannon fodder...very few are noteworthy..when i find a good bi pedal ape bee/ant i really appreciate them.
"Fungus is always fuckin' around"
Imagine fungin’ around and forming a symbiosis to become lichen. Christ.
you keep me fucking sane mate,come back and do Australian deserts
And Australian desserts... Sorry, I'm drunk right now.
@@azuritet3 What are some notable Australian desserts that you'd like to share with the world?
@@erich1394 Never been to Australia before but I've seen people on TV pull off gobs of tree sap and eat those.
@@azuritet3 spectacular!
Thank you for showing me things that I could never see on my own
I’m always amazed by the plant’s growing in cracks of freeways where there is no water or soil. Some of them thrive in situations that seem quite impossible
I love what you're doing you're doing mankind a favor teaching them how to act when they're outside
Damn, you’re on fire with your positive vibes today
😭
Crime Pays But Botany Doesn't 🙃
Nice Penstemon.
Manifesting Positive Energy
Nice ash flow bro
hopsage...so softly beautiful, like a faded antique rose. I'd never seen it before today.
Praise be to science for you. You make the science amazing rather than crap, boring, dull. Thanks for making it amazing again.
And it wouldn't be the American southwest, nor the indignant Chicagoan Italian botanist Tony Macaroni, "without a smattering of trash"

Your knowledge about plants, plant ecology, geology etc is absolutely stunning and you have your heart att the right place
Thank you too. Thanks to you I've spent almost a year studying geology. Thanks for taking me places I'll never see!
19:42 Everything you said there, I really wish I could get my father, and all of my family to understand this.
I’ll never understand the consistent human attribute to be shallow ignorant disrespectful and egotistical in this present day
We get European nightjar (Caprimulgus europaeus) in the Uk, super cool birds. I love how mechanical they look in flight. Thanks for the video as always dude!
Joey thku for walking yer dogs where u don't have to scoop and then looking at plants along the way :)
Thank you, Joey you are finally in an area I lived in for many years (except it was in Idaho). Thanks for the education to the area which is far better than all the college courses I took which were in schools in this area even as an ecology major.
My day just got better! Thanks for your great content.
Every video you make keeps me enthralled to the end. Thank you
Definitely a Dead Kennedy’s vibe
i live for this every week
At 32:38 I finally figured out why you call your dog two different names. My apologies to the both of them, clearly I wasn't paying attention. Easy to get distracted by the lyrical botany and geology lessons going on here. I appreciate the name of your channel and the terrific work you do. I got my degree in botany a couple decades ago and couldn't find any work to use it for except for GMO lab jobs for Monsanto (nope) or sketchy part-time fieldwork or gardening. Enjoyed gardening jobs till my knees and back and hands told me otherwise. Anyway. You're getting me all inspired to pick up my old texts and field guides and remember some of that terminology and names that I've forgotton while trying to remember my kids's names instead. Take care out there, I wish I could join you on one of your hikes in person but this channel is a good second.
You wonder if the cryptogams holding the top of the soil together might have tardigrades. It'd be interesting to take a sample back to the lab, rehydrate it, and have a look in a good dissecting scope to see if there are any tardigrades. I was growing fern thalli once from spores collected from the resurrection ferns growing on the upper limbs of our oak, and I got multiple species of algae and tardigrades galore. The prof asked for them after we were done, so I just let the agar in the petri dish dry out and stuck it into an envelope. It's probably still sitting somewhere in a drawer in the botany lab at SHSU.
That's a question to ponder. They for sure play a part in some facet of life's web we have yet to understand
Ah good old Elko County, closer to Wendover, my dad and uncle would go explore while my mom and aunt gambled. Once I was out hiking with them at an abandoned building salt factory of some sort, very distopian, we later squished coins on the train tracks.
Hello my loud mouth botanist friend
Happy July 4th to you I hope you stay safe not too warm and keep up the excellent videos
Thank you for this video. Amazing again to see how the harsh environment drives creativity
I really needed to see some ashy Badlands today. Thank you.
If you ever feel truly in need of a break from California nonsense, you could always venture over to the Atlantic for some Massachusetts bullshit... Personally I'd love to hear some commentary on our beloved flora out here. Wish we had a New England wetlands guide like you for all the stuff i see during my woodland walks and have no idea what i'm looking at!
But I'm very glad for the appreciation for desert and cloud forest ecosystems you've introduced me to. Never knew how much diversity there really is in these climates you show us! I'm slowly building a bit of botanical vernacular to help me understand my own east coast surroundings, thanks to you. And it's deeply cathartic to hear the madness and mindlessness called out for what it is. Any time I'm feeling like cracking under the strain, I bring up one of these videos. Thanks man, it makes a huge difference to my days.
We love watching. Thank you
Love it! Thank you
I freakin love your voice and accent man. Ive sampled you for a beat I made a few years back too :)
Dude, you are a hoot. Thanks!
I always take comfort in knowing animals and plants survived the Yucatan Chicxulub meteorite that killed the dinosaurs, the Younger Dryas meteorite 12,000 years ago, solar flare radiation, volcanic ash blackouts, etc etc. the anthropocene is just another bad day for life on earth. You cant stop life. Just ask a tardigrade.
salvia land is a pretty fun experience tbh. I watched myself melt in an infinite mirror atom by atom and then I rebuilt this play-dough world with my atoms and I was on a boat floating above Bikini Bottom. 10/10 would do again.
Thanks you for making videos for us!
Ahh yeah! Love seeing the Great Basin Wild Rye, with their dongs out. Does the ergot fungus grow on these lovelies?! Cheers, from the Southern Oregon Coast.
.. probably not, though, about the ergot. Desert dry, dry as Jack’s nose. Love the commentary!
I always knew someone named "Fun Guy" was trying too hard. He's just fucking around, I knew it!
I love your content. Thank you!
Thanks again man, love yer!
There are 60 year old Tank Tracks in the Tularosa Valley, they will be there forever. But I wouldnt worry about Quad and Truck tracks too much, they just bladed off 2,700 acres of untouched Chiuhuahuan Desert for Solar Panels. They spent years keeping kids on quads off the area to then just destroy it completely.
The solar shit is such a sham. At least they way these companies do it clearing land for solar fields
Penstemon immanifestus was named for James reveal who apparently never saw the species when he was in the region. It’s a bit of a botanical joke from art cronquist and the holmgrens when they wrote the inter mountain flora. That’s the story from Stan welsh at BYU anyway.
According to Stevens and Love in "The Heart of the Penstemon Country" (2020) it was Rupert Barneby that suggested the name to Noel Holmgren as a play on words to indicate that it was "unrevealed" by their friend, the late great Dr. Jim Reveal, when it was confused with something else. So Stan's story is no doubt close. (I would however have preferred a name that was more descriptive of the characteristics of the plant or where it grows, etc.)
@@addsum I suspect welsh told me right but It was 20 years ago. Thanks for clarifying. I’ll have to get that book.
I heard "boom boom , oh shit" "boom boom, put it out" until 2 am last night
would love for to be bird sounds instead
Nighthawks,po’orwills,had a few months of remote Baja beach car camping with the nightly sounds..the acacia were in bloom,lovely nights ..love your rambles senor,Andale 🕺🏻
Can you do a video on flower evolution and how they diverged?
Wonderful video, thanks Joe.
Hahah bro I love your videos being I worked for nurseries here in florida .love learning more
Came here to look at the phyllaries, stayed to see all the guys hangin' out and doin" their thing.
salvia is a really awesome experience the problem are the companies that sell the extracts
salvia is as potent as LSD but acts for a short time with no side effects so they pass off an overdose as the experience
You had me at old man scrotum. Great video. And a good review of my long lost botany!
nice as always... thanks for sharing
I love when you talk to animals that can’t begin to understand what your saying hits the dopamine pretty good
Thank YOU for making these videos. You're an inspiration and a scholar.
Good sht tony 👍
I thought his dog was a coyote at one point. I was ready for him to have a psychedelic, deep one-on-one with the majestic dessert beast.
brilliant love it
those are some nice grasses Tony
Always a gift
His dissent of humankind
Interesting botany you have in North America!
May you walk on warm sands.
Talos guide you.

I haven't seen fireflies in years 😥
Where?
There’s significantly less in lots of the east
I still have fireflies at my home in the Missouri Ozarks. It's really sad and alarming what's going on in the insect world.
I've caught a few outside my apartment building last week, but there's too much light pollution here to see their lights good. And that was a relief too, because I'd been seeing less of them this whole decade, but that day, there was about 5-6 of them just flitting around the front stoop.

The sound of summer is the sound Nighthawks make.
Another banger video!
Big ups or whatever. Thanks.
You're welcome. 100% my pleasure. Thank you
Thank you for the videos... You give a new way of thinking... More wide... I am in stage 0,5 in 100😳
Love your vids man. I hope to run into you out here someday.
jack is a good boy
S Divinorum is enjoyable along as you pray to it first. I should know I grow loads of it
I was part of a team that showed this in an Alife computer simulation called Tierra. Absolutely true and easy to repo / play with.
AND a money shot if i ever saw one of ole Stanleya
I thought those were tiny roses. SO pretty.
Hey boss love your attitude on life and nature, I would request that you leave the name and information on screen while the plants are still on screen.
How pretty
stamens out for harambe; who knew desert grasses could be so damn interesting. btw, if the nighthawks dive on you a good spray of water from a make them turn up or crash
haha "they been up longer then the tweekers"
The very best as usual thank you for such great content! I’ve noticed the closed captioning is good on your videos. I also like your annotations a lot. However, when you have the closed captioning on the annotations and captioning share the same space on the screen. Thanks again!

GROWIN' ON THE ASH
Joey, I've seen small sweat bees pollinating grasses in East Tennessee. I was surprised, because I didn't expect that. S. viridiflora should have been named lutea, because it's yellow, not green.
Imagine if we found a brassicae on Mars
Whatever is adapted to high iron low nutrients and alkaline soil you could grow something there without modification
legumes brassicaciae asteraciae amaranthaciae and Amaryllidaceae are believed to be able to grow in martian soil in a climate controlled environment Mars is too cold and I don’t see how seed would get there without being destroyed
Krispy Kleenex minus the correct atmosphere honestly I wouldn't be surprised if some of these plants would thrive there lol
@@Krispykleenex Life will always find a way.
Of course it was an accessorized Jeep making all the ruts
They probably stopped every once in a while to shoot coyotes. It was 30 years ago I was driving through the Saskatchewan countryside down a grid road. Some yahoos stopped their truck and shot something in the field and then drove off. I checked it out - it was a porcupine. No reason other to stop and shoot something. Just real pigs.
Bunchgrass!
I read the title as "Ashy Madlands and volcanic Bastards" 👍😅
My new band name
the salvia dorm room experience - "u feelin it brobro?"
12:36 LOL 12:48 My thoughts exactly!
if you wanna visit sedona and take a special kind of look at what tourism and hospitality do to the desert i got a shed you can stay in
free beer is involved
Room service and free wifi continental breakfast?
hey man, what country is next on your travel list?
Africa?
Madagascar and sucotra?
Borneo?
He’s picked some fuckin winners and taught me about so much stuff I didn’t know about, new calidonia was insane, so was any central and South American.
Outstanding content!
A shout-out to Sally D! Nice 👍
Dead Kennedy’s reference. Thank you
damn alien brassicas doing big landscape level damage in some desert areas
Jack does not need to go to Rehab! That’s a smile of happiness. Unless he’s been on the peyote too?? 🤣
