Fun fact about mycorrhizal fungi, they connect similar trees through their fungal network, not only sharing nutrients between tree and fungi, but from tree to tree through the fungal network. Older trees will have more branching connections to other trees, making them important to forests. In historical literature and mythology, they're often referred to as a mother tree.
so I'm Indigenous (Ojibwe) and, fun fact, we actually use these plants for medicine! (some people in Western herbalism do too, but yknow) When its extracted, it makes a really powerful pain relief!
@@brigidtheirish it really is an amazing plant. Would you believe looking at that white ghostly flower that the extract turns a deep purple? I actually made medicine from it this year and gave it to my mom who has some bad chronic hip pain and it helps her get comfortable enough to sleep when the pain won't let her. (Obviously i was extremely careful to only harvest a little and not damage the root system bc of its tenuous ecosystem nature, and i have a tribal gathering license to gather medicines) But yeah it's a weird sensation (I've taken it myself before for a migraine)--it doesn't work like normal pain relief. Other methods work by blocking the pain receptors, ynow? Akiwenziimaawi (the name for it in our language) has this weird effect where it kinda sets you beside the pain mentally, so you can still feel it but you're sorta disconnected from it so it's less debilitating. Hence why some people also use it for intense anxiety & PTSD--bc of that "distancing" effect. If I had to describe it, I'd say take that comfy cocoon feeling from a marijuana high and cross it with the "outside your body" feeling of dissociation.
@@SoulDelSol it definitely is. Usual tincture dosages range from like 10-25 drops (a drop is .05mL) while the ghost pipe dosage for an average adult is THREE drops. It's pretty amazing
@@anangoohns I posted in another thread that we called them Indian pipes bc Indians used them. I'm in Massachusetts wampanoag area. Indian was a term that was used 35 years ago and as a kid that's what we were told. But I never knew indigenous peoples used them specifically for pain. I never knew what they were for
I saw a grouping of these at the nature preserve a couple summers ago. I had no idea what they were and spent so long trying to figure out what they were because I'd never seen anything like it.
@@thehantavirus I was on a nature preserve so I for sure wouldn't have harvested them, but I agree. They are too rare to harvest without damaging their population.
@@thehantavirus that's really sad people want to make tea out of something so rare and amazing. I'm really happy I saw them, even if I didn't know enough about them at the time to appreciate what I found
Fun fact! Ghost pipe tincture (which can help with pain and anxiety) is dark purple, yet another spooky color to add to the list! Its really such a fascinating plant, one of my favorites since its so strange and fungus like. its pretty well known among indigenous people, but is still obscure for western herbalism, glad its getting some attention!
lol I literally just posted a comment about this, as an Indigenous person who works with herbal/traditional medicine. Shoutout for the mention of Indigenous traditional ecological knowledge! I actually made ghost pipe tincture this year (I don't every year bc if the plant population isn't doing well, I DONT harvest bc thats disrespectful and greedy toward the plants. But they were doing well this year where I was.) But yeah I gave it to my mom and it helps her get to sleep sometimes when her chronic hip pain won't quit. I'm really honored I have the opportunity to work with it--its an awe-inspiring plant relative!

Have had these at the edge of my lawn (more like an unkempt meadow) for several years, also have been harvesting miatake mushrooms nearby.

Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it’s just so hard to source here
Psychedelics are the reason why i didn’t take my life when i was at my end. I was stripped of my ego and saw the beauty of life and interconnectivity and even though i still battle anxiety and depression, I’m doing better everyday and will never think in such a self destructive way again.
I found a few of these in the woods behind my house last year and was so excited. Then this year there were too many to count! Some even came up in the grass close to the treeline.
These grow all over Vancouver island, nice to see more information on them, they are actually a sign of a healthy forest, they grow both in the light or dark. Commonly known as the Indian ghost pipe locally, they are oddly a welcome inhabitant as they indicate the biome is healthy enough to support them. They actually are used medicinally for stress and anxieties if I remember
Never knew this species occurred outside the Americas. I wonder if the Asiatic plants have any noticeable differences. Also, I think a video on chestnut trees would be awesome, whether it's more of an overview on the genus or about a specific species, like Castanea dentata.
As someone who was born and raised in the Northeast I'd love to hear a story done on a "Jack in the Pulpit"! When I was growing up in Vermont my PE teacher used to take out us kids and go on nature walks. Our school was semi located in a forest so at some point during the schools foundation I'm unaware of they made this very long and extravagant nature trail that is only supposed to be used by my school. One day when we were on a hike our PE teacher recognized a protected plant under Vermont's wildlife law. At the time they were experiencing over poaching and so like the California poppy, it became illegal to cut or transport them. But, since it was growing on private property owned by the state/school, r p e teacher got to show us up close and personal the plant, how it feeds, why it's indigenous to the area, how it's endangered, and a bit more. She then allowed us to individually look at the "flower" and see the little thing sticking up in the middle of it. It was really cool because then when I was at home and ran off into the forest like I did often as a kid for fun I saw one in the wild and I knew to keep my distance from it and make sure that I wasn't going to hurt it in any way.
I have several Jack in the Pulpit plants in my shade garden. They were going to be ploughed under to widen a road, so I researched them, dug them up with lots of their native soil, and stuck them in my safe garden. They’ve prospered and definitely multiplied. And the pulpits are enormous now. I teach the neighbourhood kids about the importance of wild flowers and native plants when they visit my dog … not me, the dog! … and the kids love the science they get out of the visit!
I love finding these in the Green Mountain National Forest, they are so beautiful in contrast to the gloom of woods. They remind me of those eyeless white animals found deep in cave systems. I have never tried picking them so I had no idea they turned black!
I have noticed that most information about Monotropa Uniflora mentions it being odorless… despite the fact it has a fairly strong and quite distinctive smell. I wonder if it’s because the King’s American Dispensary Vol. II calls the flowers “inodorous”… and everyone references that book?
Great plant for pre-spooky season! I'd be curious to know more about those Orchids that look like bees (Also wanna say I straight up love how much of a ham Tasha is. Perfect for the Animal logic brand built on bad puns XD)
Odd as this might sound, what about yard plants? I just found out a few things about the "weeds" in my yard, but I'd be fascinated to learn more, even if they might be kinda common.
@@SoulDelSol southeastern USA, near the Gulf Coast but closer to the Mississippi River than to Florida, basically. There are plenty of places I can go learn about what's growing in the woods out at my in-laws place, but so far I still don't know what most of what's in my yard, murdering the crab grass. (I'm cheering for the weeds, btw, crab grass is dumb.) Very recently learned that I have sorrel, and I know money plant (dollar weed I think it's also called), and what my grandfather used to call "monkey grass." But after that, no idea, and that's after grabbing pictures and checking botanical guides in my local library! Worse, even if I find out WHAT a plant is, I'm likely not to get the nifty facts Tasha always has for us!
@@SoulDelSol There’s also wild garlic depending on where you live. They look like grass at first, but their leaves are round and darker green (depending on the surrounding grass), when you break them they should smell like garlic. These are perfectly edible and can be used like chives or regular garlic.
I'm an indigenous (Floridian). We have these in Florida and harvest some for a number of ailments, including pain relief. Once it's a tincture, it makes a very pretty purple liquid, has very little taste, and is effective in small amounts. We are always sure to leave enough of the little vampires so we can harvest more later. They are beautiful plants. Thanks for the video.
I'm pretty sure I've seen this plant before. In the Kootenays in BC. I didn't pick it and this was years ago but from memory it looks just like the plant you're showing and I did indeed think it was a mushroom
We had some of these in my University’s woods last year! I actually press dried them, they are now pink and black and yellow and definitely my favorite specimen to date! I’m hoping we have some more this year so I can try and make a tincture!
She's a real hoot! What a cornball! She looks like she's having a good time well entertaining us as well. Hey, not many folks could pull off that hair color girl you do it well! Interesting video
Ah-ha...! I forage for mushrooms and definitely looked up this plant in my journey. It was identified as an edible mushroom, "Indian Ghost Pipe" mushroom they called it, but on closer inspection, it looked looked like it had a flower. I thought perhaps it's a pretend flower and intended to look up more info on mushrooms with false flowers, but now you've cleared up the mystery for me! Thanks! Peace and Health
"Indian Pipes" here in Fl, saw some in my front yard where a tree stump was only partly ground down and ton of mounded mulch sank until a few inches below ground level. Saw them first at age 50. My son and I thought it to be a fungus. No elevation over sea level more than50ft - was BEACH only 15k y.a....Florida peninsula, with my county separating Trampa Bay ,& Gulf Mex.

"Perturbantes quod infernum" = Latin for "Creepy as hell" (according to Google translate). Though I suspect someone with a proper understanding of the language could give a better translation.
It is not a parasite. It feeds off of fungus but it is an actual flower and it’s a perennial always remember to leave its roots when you pick it to make tinctures
Neat that there's a plant which parasitizes fungi. I can see this developing over time; variations in the amount of chlorophyll didn't matter as the fungi had enough energy from other plants, so this species kept saving energy by producing less & less of its own. Or a mutation took it out suddenly & its connection to the fungi allowed it to survive. I'm sure a genetic study could answer this.
Maybe if we ever get government that cares about the lower and middle class people instead of the money munchers we have, that they can legislate the drug companies to run trails on wild plants and let us use them.
I'd love to hear Floralogic's take on the plants in the Voynich Manuscript. I know everyone wants to read the text, but I'm curious to know a plant expert's opinion on the drawings.
Oh yeah, I see these things all the time when I go into the woods during summer. I don’t yank them out because I don’t wanna disrupt the balance of nature, though I really wish I could. But they play a vital part in our ecosystem
This is actually a ghost pipe, also known as Indian ghost pipe or native pipe. Natives use this for pain relief of many sorts. It can still be used when picked immediately put in alcohol and made into a tincture. IT IS NOT A PARASITE! it is actually a flower, but it does feed off of funguses. It does not use photosynthesis from the sun, but it is in fact, a flower. They’re actually perennials they come back every year if you pick them to make tinctures for pain relief, and anxiety relief, you should always leave the roots. When you start seeing the black on it that shows that its medicinal properties are leaving it and it is beginning to die. When you make a tincture with it, you have to put it in immediately into your vodka and make sure it’s covered completely and stored for 6 to 8 weeks. It will turn purple within minutes of it being picked and die. When you make the tincture within 3 to 4 days the flower and your tincture will be bright purple.

Do the only parasitic conifer species in the world.
Grizzlies eat it? What is the source? Many (if not all) monotropa species contain grayanotoxin, which makes it bit odd.
Since it's autumn, how about an episode on gourds and squashes? Let's get yummy with plants 😋
What is the name of the yellow vine on the tomato plant?
I'm gonna play this video next to some mushrooms to scare them
Or help them stay away from a toxic relationship 😶

What a cool plant! I love that it plays the UNO Reverse card on fungi by behaving much like some of those do!
Where they grow is almost like that of some terrestrial orchids.
Neat that there's a plant which parasitizes fungi. I can see this developing over time; variations in the amount of chlorophyll didn't matter as the fungi had enough energy from other plants, so this species kept saving energy by producing less & less of its own. Or a mutation took it out suddenly & its connection to the fungi allowed it to survive. I'm sure a genetic study could answer this.
I love you Tasha 🥰💜
I had over 50 of these in my small backyard last year. Know all about them.
I used to see these all the time. They were everywhere. I used to think they were just another fungus.
You asked I supply answers,
Creepy as hell, in Latin
Creepy ut infernum
Maybe if we ever get government that cares about the lower and middle class people instead of the money munchers we have, that they can legislate the drug companies to run trails on wild plants and let us use them.
Talk about the devils backbone next. I love mine.
I'd love to hear Floralogic's take on the plants in the Voynich Manuscript. I know everyone wants to read the text, but I'm curious to know a plant expert's opinion on the drawings.
Oh yeah, I see these things all the time when I go into the woods during summer. I don’t yank them out because I don’t wanna disrupt the balance of nature, though I really wish I could. But they play a vital part in our ecosystem
What about a profile on Sarlix arctica? It's the northernmost woody plant in the world. Loves tundra.
This is actually a ghost pipe, also known as Indian ghost pipe or native pipe. Natives use this for pain relief of many sorts. It can still be used when picked immediately put in alcohol and made into a tincture. IT IS NOT A PARASITE! it is actually a flower, but it does feed off of funguses. It does not use photosynthesis from the sun, but it is in fact, a flower. They’re actually perennials they come back every year if you pick them to make tinctures for pain relief, and anxiety relief, you should always leave the roots. When you start seeing the black on it that shows that its medicinal properties are leaving it and it is beginning to die. When you make a tincture with it, you have to put it in immediately into your vodka and make sure it’s covered completely and stored for 6 to 8 weeks. It will turn purple within minutes of it being picked and die. When you make the tincture within 3 to 4 days the flower and your tincture will be bright purple.
