I am so sorry. I didn’t know that people were poaching plants. I’m not a botanist, most of the time any plant in my care will sadly pass away. (I was told years ago that the condition of a persons houseplants are a reflection of that persons soul. I’m working on things.) I do know the importance of plants in their natural ecosystem. It does make me truly sad to know that people are stealing from an ecosystem. Truly. These videos are great for us who don’t know anything, very eye-opening to what is out there. Great job on these, keep up the good work, thanks for the good times.
I'm a student from China. I have been your fan for a long time and I like your video very much.But many cactus lover around me don't have the opportunity to watch your video.so I wish to translate and share your video with my friends in bilibili. I promise I never meant to use this to make profit and I will note the site where I get the video.l hope I can get your permission and I believe you will have more fans to protect the plants in the wild with you
I can’t stop thinking about your comment about how bright it outside on that substrate. Please go get some sunglasses. I have a friend who has sun damage to her eyes and is slowly and horrifically losing her sight. Bro we plant lovers depend on you and your entertaining genius. Please protect your sight.
Boom! I'm 64 & seriously can't see shete. Only bright spot 😊 got a waiver from ophtho for deep window tint on the cars. Skin cancers too. Still ain't staying inside!
Sadly...Mr. Hinton has passed. Hinton, George Boole (1882-1943) He was British metallurgist who decided at the age of fifty that his calling was in the botanical exploration of his adopted home, Mexico. From 1931 to 1941 he collected 16,300 numbers, concentrating his efforts on some of the most inaccessible parts of the country in the states of Guerrero, Michoacán, and Mexico State. His collections included well in excess of 300 new species and four new genera. The remote sierras of Guerrero and Michoacán that the Hinton traversed had remained botanically unexplored partly because of the prevalence of banditry as well as the inaccessible terrain. By befriending mountain dwellers, Hinton was able to take advantage of their hospitality in these wild places, and also garnered some protection from the lawless ways of the region's inhabitants. In his life as a mining engineer he was known as a man of the people. In one venture in which he was involved he insisted that any illiterate miners spend an hour of their working day learning to read and write. If they had not done so within six months they would be fired! Edit. Oh....It could be named after his grandson...who is also named George and who carried on the family tradition of becoming a botanist.
Ariocarpus Hintonii immortalized him, for me at least :) Thanks for sharing this story. I would have guessed he was German, since they crawled through a lot of deserts back then :)
Hey Joey. Just got your book. It's awesome. I have many of your print some signed and even a Lewisia rediviva (Bitterroot) that you drew for me. I cherish them greatly. But this book fits right on my coffee table and I am able to look at it and share with others. Now I'm going to GFM just for fun👍
Your book arrived a couple days ago. I love it! Very good quality with a great mix of landscapes, info graphics, plants, critters, and and Homo sapiens.
Please don`t forget that there are tons of fools with seedlings and crafted ones. As sad as it is that they are in danger, somewhere in a corner on the other side of the globe someone is preparing an army to repatriate and repopulate. I did my job and have 3 Peyotle seedling which are currently listening to "Eye of the tiger" and train like Rocky!!!
@@jdevil8877 good one! A species that methodically & intentionally destroys it's only habitat doesn't deserve to survive IMHO. Too bad they're gonna take the rest of us with them into oblivion tho
I woke up one morning and someone had plucked two Salvia sylvestris from my park strip. It was kinda weird. They aren't hard plants to get ahold of, I'm not sure why they just had to have mine. The evidence of poaching in this video reminded me of it.
Uhm. I saw some suspicious looking rabbits. They asked me if I want to have "something something". Not sure if they were involved in this robbery but watch you back, sir! They were vicious and ready for whatever.

Perfect timing for the vid! I just unwrapped your book 5 minutes ago, and WOWZER!!! You really UNDERSOLD the QUALITY of this one!! The hardback really adds a gneiss touch too. 143 beautiful pages of your magnificent drawings! The added touch at the end with 3 extra blank pages, all for ME to draw my fav's on is just FANTASTIC!!! I think I remember you saying those would be there, but it was still extra fun for me to see them in person. (Which is odd, bcuz they're blank... 📖 but that's just my weirdness) Anyway- I REALLY LOVE THE BOOK!!! I gotta say... I feel you could've charged a MUCH HIGHER price! I don't normally advocate to pay more money for items, but in your case, I very much like that you're making $ from your art. So it feels good to buy it! It also feels good peruse the pages.

The Euphorbia antisyphilitica's fruit explodes when it's ready. It first gets red, the plant puts the pod in a 45° or almost vertical position and it explodes that night. The pods have just one to four seeds. But I have never seen a seedling, maybe my plant is sterile or the conditions for the germination are not given in my backyard.
For many years I was allowed to take care of some crafted seedlings. When I first saw them, I fell in love with them. So since ~25 years all my PC`s got the nick name "Scapharostrus".
so ive always thought that beautiful blue colour that spruce have and some cacti have is gorgeous, i found out today its called glacous from the waxy leaves. Do you mind commenting on this? also can trillium or lady slipper orchids be grown in a nursery?
I always thought glacous was referring to the white powdery film on any color leaf. After reading your comment, I looked up the definition... (Not that I doubted you! 🙈) And low n behold!

There are none growing naturally in my area as I live in Texas, but we have other blue plants to admire over here, like the Agaves. Still, when a Blue Spruce has that bright new growth, there's just nothing like it!!
The Pokémon analogy was a good comparison. Thanks for answering the safety question at the end of the video, wondered about the current status of Nuevo León.
If I were to try to grow a gypsum endemic plant in nutrient rich soil, would that plant do much better than in gypsum only, or have those plants evolved to actually need that gypsum substrate to survive. Just a thought that popped into my mind. Also just got your book delivered and it's the shit.
Did you ever read Oliver Sacks Oaxaca Journal? Fern club goes to Oaxaca, I was lucky enough to hike around in the state of Oaxaca, in the foothills. It was wonderful.
Hey Joey, I was just curious if there was any documentation of active self-pollenation? I haven't heard of pollination described as a flower smashing its anthers into its stigma repeatedly on its own will. However that's what I think I am seeing.. Do you know the name of this behavior..? Other than self-pollination 😂 forgive my ignorance. It just seems there is a large focus on a necessity of an external polinator which may not be necessarily needed. I made a time-lapse of one of my cacti (self-fertile) if you have a moment to spare and offer an opinion. Love your passion and depth of knowledge its an inspiration to us all!
@21:41 Poaching is such a bummer! Some people just don't care; others need to learn the difference between seed grown and poached "habitat plants." If they stopped buying them then no profit for the poachers! Grow them from seed! 🌵 Only take photos! and don't buy poached plants 🦊

A similar yellow Poppy strain is also present in my country (Glaucium flavum in Eastern Europe) however it grows only on rocky wastelands which are not much in the Balkans, and it is also endangered species. The toxicology is similar like the other puppy species, with the exception that it has the most potent alkaloids from all Papaveroideae family. However it is not used for medicine or other purposes due to the small yield in comparison to papaver somniferum which is significantly larger and it also grows significantly slower in such harsh habitat.
"The poachers missed because it (the cactus) was on the verge of death". In a universal culture where money is the sole category of any true value, near death, ugly appearance etc. may be the only immediate salvation. That really doesn't include healthy plants to continue the species. And the locals are probably ripped off by the opportunists putting them up to it. The world the way it is, probably growing these plants in a protected area may be the only way of preserving them, hopefully to be re-introduced back later on. It may seem elitist, and not too long ago might have been individuals from the U.S. doing the digging up. But still necessary.
Out of all the "living stones" type mimicry plants, like those in the mesemb family such as lithops or those in the milkweed fanily like pseudolithos, I think this one takes the cake for actually looking like a living stone
I saw your dog in the video! Can you bring your dog to Mexico? I really want to go to Mexico to see rare plants but was told I couldn’t cross the border with my dog.
Thats so sad to see that those arioacarpusses actually are ripped away. I work at a Botanic garden in Amsterdam near the airport and we get a couple times a year some pouched plants (To keep them alive ofcourse). But to see it for real its making me sad😢😢😢

What do you do with the seeds you collect?
He grows the plants or gifts them to other enthusiasts who want to either study/conserve/appreciate the plants.
Pretty sure he's made it clear multiple times that he enjoys shoving them up his ass. The rarer, the better!
One of those things that probably will become more desired for poaching with how rare they are becoming from poaching.

Gypsum is used for ceiling tiles, insulation, etc.

Usually not obligated to it and can be grown on other soils if in cultivation. Gypsum tolerance just gives them a competitive advantage in habitat
