mama uwuu...
What about the Amelanchier plants? Who's with me on them?
Much live to Tasha and the team. Thank you for the show, my family are dedicated watchers. I'm gonna try to find a stinky cactuslike succulent now. I would live to see a bit on torch cacti, their history with the indigenous people of central/South America, pollinator species etc. I grow a few of them, and I am honestly impressed by any cacti that grows from seed especially in the wild.
Thank you again 💓
Could you make a video about Seriema bird ?
You folks should just rename this channel from "Animalogic" to "Women with off-putting nose-rings" channel.
I was told there would be Piranha Plants. I've been tricked, lied to, and quite possibly bamboozled! I feel like the flies.
Punish the guy who lied to you
Looks like you just got Carrioned™️
But we're not here to touch any reproductive structures, are we?
Do you mean drunk because flies feel drunk when well you know😢
I think the invasive strawberry guava is an interesting subject to talk about. It’s been over crowding native Hawaiian plants and spreads rapidly.
Ohia lehua are cooler.
Are you from Hawaii, or did you watch Green Planet
@@maythesciencebewithyou none of the above. I did a research assignment on the ways the Hawaiian ecosystem has been destroyed over the years since no one talks about it enough.
I have a couple bushes at home in California!! Delicious fruit, had no idea it's invasive!! Probably doesn't like my area as it hasn't moved 😂
Passiflora!
I feel like the venus flytrap is still a much closer to a Piranha Plant than the featured plant of this video.
The thumbnail is such a bullsh!t picture too!!! Even Animalogic is stooping nowadays...
I agree. The Venus at least looks like it has teeth, and it actually has a (somewhat looking) mouth.
I would disagree because the piranha plant has a carnivorous flower.
But im sure the flowers of the piranha plant were inspired by venus fly trap bracts
@@celestialrenamon well about this one Carnivorous Plant Magisword ?
A fun fact in regards to succulents and Cacti. The word "Cactus" actually comes from the taxonomical name "Cactaceae", and all of the some 1700 species found in this family are true cacti, and all native to North and South America. However, quite a few other plants all over the world have convergently evolved similar features because its such an effective design and may be called cacti, but are not true cacti. The Carrion Flower being one, and many Euphorbias(a family more known for plants such as Common Spurge growing out of concrete cracks, the Castor Oil Plant, and the Manchineel Tree) being another, such as the grafted Coral Cactus you often see in stores, African Milk Trees, or the fearsome looking Enlopa Cactus.
So cacti are the crabs of the tree world?
All cacti are native to north/south america EXCEPT ONE
A rhapsilis got to africa somehow on it's own
Kinda like carcinization?
Crabs, cacti and trains. Any other examples of convergent evolution defined by top efficiency?
@@segamai trains?
I have one of these plants in my garden! (my wife and I have an interesting collection) It was flowering a few weeks ago. I actually don't find them smelling that bad in person, more like a ripe cheese than a rotting corpse.
Your Garden sounds so cool.
and what do you do to prevent the spread of seeds?
@@Libelibel With most plants, that's prevented by trimming the seed head before it ripens.
Also, I'm mostly anosmic, so I wonder if I'd be *able* to smell this flower.
How do you know what a rotting corpse smells like?
@@sealevel5961 Probably been in the general vicinity of roadkill. I hope.
LOL, Tasha's pronunciation of carrion even fooled the closed caption program.
I got a cutting of one of these. I had no idea what it was, I just rooted it and potted it and watched it grow. One day it stated growing flowers and when it bloomed 😍 I was blown away! Mine isn't actually stinky, at least I can't smell it. It does however attract flies. I keep it outside while it's in bloom lol. I also steal the little fly larvae that end up in there and feed them to my fish
It's crazy this was posted today, the very day my Zulu Giant bloomed for the first time!🤯
That's so cool! I have one at home too. Smells awful, right? lol
@@luckas221a lol! It does! The first day not so much, but the second morning, I thought there was a gas leak, so I started getting up to check the stove, then saw the flower, and was like, " OHHHHH" 😂
What we need to talk about is having these videos becoming its own channel: "Floralogic". I believe they deserves it
Tasha's outtakes are the best! I wish the other hosts did this.
I have a Stapelia in my living room. It blooms all the time, but ist doesn't smell at all for some reason. We nicknamed ist tentacle cactus (I know it's not a cactus, I'm a botanist after all xD ). I love this guy since it looks funny, is low-maintenance and you can easily make cuttings of it.
Same! It doesn't smell past 20cm or so.
I have mine in a hanging pot on my porch and I've never smelled a thing. It does attract flies but, that's a positive thing because, it keeps the flies out of my house. 👍🏻 Cool plant and low maintenance.
@@commonnons3ns316 mine doesn't even attract flies. I think it forgot how to be a proper Stapelia :D
It's just the best
Bruh how does a plant just “forget it’s purpose” XD
I liked it, though I was more so curious as to why the tittle called it "piranha plant". The moment they started talking about flies I thought she was gonna say "... but surprise, flies are actually its prey".
This is the perfect episode for Halloween!
In my teens I loved cacti and succulents and had one of those. If I remember right it had deep red petals and was growing on our 1. floor corridor. The smell wasn't noticeable unless you got close, then it was awful - though, not to the point of stomach turning, more like a pretty bad fart (intensity wise, I mean). It also didn't bloom all too often, so the vast majority of the time it was just the green fleshy bits, which don't smell at all.
You know I like stank flowers because they always come in strange and interesting shapes and colors like the hydnora africana, titan arum, rafflesia, and now this.
Certified nose-blind succulent collector here! Love collecting these Stapeliads and their milkweed relatives!! Hoping that their fragrant cousins: the Hoyas get featured next
If I hear "carry on" one more time, I'll SCREAM!!!!!
I hope you tackle Boquila trifoliolata in the future 🥰🥰🥰
I bought a succulent and I didn't know what it was. It was a stapelia that flowered black!
You didn't explain how this was the "real life piranha plant". I was expecting something more carnivorous.
I would love to see a video on moringa ❤
I live for those outtakes 😂😂😂
pretty cool
I love this! My grandma has a few of these growing, and we always admire their comically-oversized flowers, but have never known what they are. Now I can tell her!
Is it just me or did the creature from Stranger Things inspired by the Carrion Plant?
The comment I was expecting to find.... 🤘
I think we can safely say yes. The demodogs definitely came from this thing or something close to it. And their lore makes sense for this as well; we know they reek.
THIS. My immediate reaction to this plant was, "demogorgon plant??"
I'm so glad everyone in Florida loves growing these things outdoors. Thanks guys. Oh and they don't get too badly hurt below 10C as long as they don't freeze. Maybe if it was weeks on end but when we have brief dips to almost freezing they don't take too much damage. Any flowers will probably drop though.
The outtakes were hilarious. Would looove to see more. :D
I've never heard someone mispronounce carrion so many times in such a short amount of time. I'll now always hear 'carry-on' when I read carrion, wonderful...
The comment I was searching for! Carry-en not carry-on lol
My person, there are all kinds of reasons someone might pronounce something differently than you do. I doubt you'd feel comfortable making that same comment on footage of Steven Hawking or any public figure with a neurological condition. We usually teach children some version of "if you can't be polite, be quiet" for a reason.
@@ajchapeliere That man needed a machine to talk, I don't think mispronouncing things is quite on the same level as a machine dependant person who actually can't help mispronouncing things because a machine program does it for them.
Also, likening them to that is pretty rude.
I remember finding these flowers blowing around our resort/marina in the Keys. Although I never noticed a bad smell when I examined them, the islands all smell like an open sewer from the seagrass that bakes on the shoreline.
There is no way that I could do a better job at presenting this. Each episode makes me smile. I really enjoy how you present each episode.
Wow, I just discovered this plant this week, I had it and knew nothing about it until Starro the flower appeared.
It really does look like a demogorgon
there's a yuhioh monster called predaplant dracostapelia, weird to see what it's based on
"ew, you cant take that thing on a plane"
"yes i can, it's my Carry On plant"
I may have missed the point - How is this a Piranha plant?
Did I miss how it’s like a piranha..?
Hi Tasha! The first time I saw a flowering Stapelia, I wanted to smell it up close. I didn't know what it would be like and I felt my nostrils flaring... Propagation tip. Any piece of stem will do. The best cutting Will be the apical one. The tip is to wash the mucilage of the cut well and leave the cutting in a ventilated shade, until the cut is dry. That way, you won't lose any cutting. Congratulations and cheers!
well my garden has like 20+ of these and half of them are blooming now, some doesnt smell that bad, but the huedina flower smell like beef jerky lol
I love watching Animalogic!!!
Great stuff Tash keep them coming
Do a video about cycads! (Sometimes) toxic dinosaur salad! What is not to love?
Please talk about phantom orchids next!
I love the vibes LOL And learning at the same time, makes this one of my favorite channels!
What happened to the Piranha plant? Please do more in this series! You are my favorite presenter. I learn a lot and you make me laugh sooooo hard! More please!😂
next idea: convergent evolution in caladium (aroids) and nervilia (orchids)
The video staresults with the pirhana plant and goes imediatly to the carion plant
What about underwater plants? 🌱
I love the sarcasm and jokes on her script
I've never heard the word 'carrion' being pronounced so incorrectly in my life, especially by someone who's an expert in everything plant based.
Gorgeous!
Cool flower, too :)
Clearly, this video was placed online with the incorrect title "Piranha" plant. I appreciated the video (I own a 70-year old version of the Carrion Plant seen here and it blooms incessantly and wonderfully after all these years), but perhaps this video will be corrected to the proper title. Peace
It was “Demogorgon plant” when it was uploaded.
Her pronunciation of carrion is gonna make me go insane
Agreed. I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed.
Could you possibly cover the adeniums? Adeniums have marvelously interesting adaptations.
I love that y'all are so into these little creatures/plants and will enjoy the hell out of all of them the whole time they were around. You just don't know how awesome it really is!!! That's just life... 😍❣️🥰
Thank you, very fun and informative video! I am shopping for them immediately, can’t wait for the day one flowers and no one can discern where the stench is from.😂
You're evil! I like that.
Pearlwort Antarctica ! One of the most extreme plants in the world temperature wise lol
Ironically I gave this a watch while having dinner, lol
I'd like to know more about the Machineel tree, the gympy-gympy shrub, and those lichens that can uproot themselves and (slowly) crawl around.
I know, I'm weird.
My father grows Stapelias, I loved playing with the seeds. The plant would release these fluffy seeds that would get carried away by the wind.
Put one of these next to some carnivorous plants and get the ultimate tag-team going
Not all cacti are succulents the Periskia and Periskopsis families are cacti but look like woody shrubs with leaves. You can only tell they are cacti from their spines which grow radially from small pads like all other cacti. Only cacti have these structures which are highly modified leaf nodes. The spines grow from them and well as the flowers and new branches. Each one can only ever produce either a flower or a branch, and once flowered it is "spent" and cannot produce further flowers or branches.
Bro the flower looks like the maze game you find in the newspapers
The outtakes are always fun 🎉
I can't wait until my plant blooms. I have two buds that look like the plant from little shop of horrors!
Great documentary short! I loved the fails at the end, and of course 😍 your eyes.
If you'd also love to see some outtakes, just CARRION watching until the very end.
Could you make a video about Neesia altissima ? It is little-known unusual plant relate to Durian but its fruit look like the combination between durian and star fruit.
I truly injoyed this
Really enjoying your presentation skills 🙂
Don't mean to be rude, but I love the hair color. Your hair looks like flowers, nice smelling flowers.
Have you seen Huernia pillanasi and Huernia asperia? Those really look like demogorgons too.
The official scientific name sounded more like "Stinking giant". "So, if you want to find out why it's called the carrion plant" just carry on.
Predaplant Dragostapelia is a very useful card in Yu-Gi-Oh
Spright decks tremble before it. I love Predaplants ❤️
I don't know if my nose was bad or because I love and used to the smell of durians, but last time I smelled the Rafflesia, they barely have any smell. I live in Sarawak, Malaysia
They only smell when freshly opened
I can't get enough of Tasha 😂
Great episode
I kept hearing carry on lol.
A giant version of this recently attacked me while I was walking around in a jungle. It appeared out of nowhere after I accidentally stepped on a weird looking pink glowing bulb...
Maybe you can keep a dead body in your house if you own a few of these plants because when the cops come to investigate you just show them the plants and they'll go oh that's why it smells like that and leave.
Give it to a friend, and tell them you hope that it's stench will cover up their home's stench lol
Even pretty up the place
I don't see what this plant has to do with a physical representation of a piranha plant? Unless the opening flower buds resemble them?
Definitely an inspiration of the giant yellow man-eating flower from "Jumanji."
Devil's backbone next please. I love mine and would love to learn more about it.
some interesting plants you could talk about are the cobra lily, how it fools and traps it's prey, and the heliconia (or at least i think its the heliconia), which manipulates hummingbirds with it's nectar
Your hair color is goals!
Here in North America we have a banana-like fruit tree that uses the same trick. Except the flowers have a faint rotting fruit smell.
Piranha ?!? Carrion, yes, I get that - but how was Piranha arrived at, they are NOT carnivorous 🦁👀
I had these in my greenhouse as a teenager. I never got them to flower though.
Is this flower used to make Limburger Cheese? 🤣
Didnt hear a thing about a piranna plant. This stinking thing didnt even eat the flys that flew in it. Wtf?
The David Attenborough video on the carrion plant is better. He also doesn't try to get you to buy two square inches of dirt in Scotland before you watch the video.
*_As long as that plant not mutated I'm ok with it_*
I have 3. I love them. Sadly not had one flower yet. I cant wait
She was waiting to tell that stamen joke... lol
Tasha the Amazon is crazy lol
We have that plant. The flycatchers love it.
What a coincidence, "Hairy Rotten Carrion" is the name of my band!
Carion plant: We shall take over the world and no one can stop us! MWA HA HA HA HA!!!
I love how americans pronounce things its so funny as a native Scottish person. You say Carrion like carry-on. We would say it like carryin:)
Americans also say carry-en. She is mispronouncing, could be regional, but it’s making my ears bleed 😂
She's Canadian & butchering the word.
Lovely episode, but I dont get the piranha reference in the title.
