Here in Brazil we call it Vitória Régia, and our indigenous people have a legend for its origin! It was known that the moon god (Jaci) had love encounters with the prettiest indigenous girls; after these dates, the chosen girls were transformed into stars. Naiá was a girl who fell in love for Jaci; one day she saw the moon's reflection on a river and got drown trying to kiss it. Jaci got touched after seeing this and as a merciful act, transformed Naiá's body into Victoria Amazonica, a river star :)
Could you make a video on Ailanthus altissima, this plant has seemingly conquered every city in the world, yet can be useful to make silk, wood via its rapid growth and even, medicine, to combat erosion, etc. Fascinating plant.
Tree of Heaven is invasive as Hell, and it’s a favorite host for spotted lantern files, which become toxic and undesirable to predators when they eat it, all the more reason to eradicate them from North America. Let them thrive in their native range.
Oh, I didn’t know they could be used to make silk! I know them from their seeds. Like helicopter blades. I know Lotuses can be used for silk, as well! It’s crazy expensive, and hard to produce.
They are incredibly invasive here in Germany , and they don't have any value to animals. In a count in Germany they found no insects at all in those trees.
Yesterday, I heard about Victoria amazonica for the first time from my professor. He told us that most literature says that they can "only" carry weights up to 40 kg but he could stand on them without a problem. So some of them can easily carry weights of up to 100 kg.
I love when a new floralogic video comes out! There are always so many new things to learn. You should do a video on the relationship between pine and oak trees in their common environment. 😊
Fun fact Seaweeds and kelp are not true plants and they did not evolve from terrestrial plant because they most likely existed before them. I used to think the same way too. They do have a common ancestor however which are cyanobacteria
One of my favorite plants! i first saw one in reality when visiting Kew Gardens in London, but i learned much through this episode that was previously unknown to me. Thank you Tasha!
eastern skunk cabbage in the US also produces heat allowing it to melt snow and be one of the first vegetative and flowering plants in the marshy areas it inhabits in the late winter and early spring.
It's then really sad how humans do everything in their power to destroy this diversity. There's no other planet in this galaxy like Earth so we should take better care of it!
Not all water lilies require constant warm water. There are some water lilies that grow in ponds in Yellowstone. These ponds are frozen over for more than 6 months every year but just a few weeks after they finally thaw out the leaves of hundreds of lilies are covering the surface. Moose are often seen in Yellowstone's lily ponds eating the leaves of the plants. Wolves are sometimes seen near lily ponds hunting moose and other animals that feed on the lilies. I'm not sure how the water lilies survive under the ice for so long. I'm guessing their seeds and possibly their roots survive the winter at the bottom of the pond and grow back in the spring
I love watching your videos. Not just because of your warm smile, bright eyes, but because you expressions are so, ahhh .... expressive!. And your dialogue is cleaver and your presentation is clear, direct, and entertaining.
Wonderful and informative video as always! I would love to see a documentary on Tokay Gecko. They are in parts of East Asia. They got their name because of the distinct and unique sound they make during mating. Their jaw is strong enough to tear down a chunk of your flesh. Because of their aggressive nature, and the fact they're being hunted in some areas; not many research are done on them. I would love to learn more about them because one is currently living outside my kitchen croaking each night.
That stock 10 year old child giggle in the beggining made me laugh so hard I almost dropped my phone and everyone on the bus is looking at me strange. Thanks.
I would love to see a Reeses Cup container in the color and style of a Victoria Amazonia. Reese's; if you are listening; the ball is in your court --- free idea and I will not sue you for taking it (documented in writing.)
Tasha The Amazon you give me lifeeeee..really cool and interesting content as always..Sending you positive vibes from my plant babies and me in VA..thanks for all the effort you put into your vids..
Can yall do a video on Portulaca Oleracea (Common Purslane) It's a super cool plant, that is commonly treated as a weed, but it's a nutritious plant, that grows easily. It's also one of the only known examples of Facultative CAM while also using C4 photosynthesis. As a succulent, and is a great source of a lot of nutrients! Also, In general, I think it would be cool if you could cover Facultative CAM in a video! :D
lobellia i just started growing at home and the seeds blew my mind they are so small like literal dust specks can you PLEASE explain the evolutionary benifit to having seeds that look like the Whos of Whoville live on em

How about doing a video on the Lofty Saguaro?
Green planet 🌍
ONE PASSWORD TO RULE THEM ALL *throws phone in Mount Doom*
Could you guys please do longer videos? Like 1/2 hour or an hour long would ne nice.
i just watch your videos because i love your funky look i may have started falling in love with you

What a sweet story! Thank you for sharing it with us.
That’s fascinating!!
Yeah, it peeved me a bit to hear "amazonica" in the video over and over. Vitória Régia, that's the correct name as far as I'm concerned.
Is it bad my first reaction is how awesome a ghost grass type Pokémon based on that would be
That's really sweet. Thank you for sharing with us!

Forbidden in Germany to sell and to multiply
Apparently more invasive than Kudzu (of which I know very little)

Ah to be a ten year old chillin on a giant lily pad, truly the dream
Not if you're being chased by a giant frog , but if there is no giant frog in sight then yes it is a dream

😱 I want to stand on this now
If you weigh 70kg and stand with each foot on one leaf, would that be enough?
Love you Tasha! I'm not really a plant person but your funny and energetic deep dives into weird vegetation always makes my day.
Gotta love unnecessarily large plants. My favorite flower is the Hardy hibiscus or swamp mallow, which has gigantic flowers for absolutely no reason.
I love when a new floralogic video comes out! There are always so many new things to learn. You should do a video on the relationship between pine and oak trees in their common environment. 😊
It's called floralogic
Sounds like a very interesting topic !
@@sleepytubbs9405 oh lol 😅 my bad! Fixed it.
I've fantasized about seeing this plant in person since I was a little kid and saw it in one of my mom's gardening books. Thanks for covering it here.
The evolution of fully aquatic plants might be an interesting topic to cover, specifically aquatic saltwater plants like seaweed
Fun fact Seaweeds and kelp are not true plants and they did not evolve from terrestrial plant because they most likely existed before them. I used to think the same way too. They do have a common ancestor however which are cyanobacteria
@@Batosai-di3jo This just means it would be even more fascinating to talk about seaweeds and kelps!
@@seaborgium919 agreed
Sea grasses evolved from land plants 4 times. Kelp are their own thing.
One of my favorite plants! i first saw one in reality when visiting Kew Gardens in London, but i learned much through this episode that was previously unknown to me. Thank you Tasha!
3:57 thanks, now that song is stuck in my head. It's one of those old-ish songs I always loved.
You all do an amazing job of answering all the questions we had as kids that our parents didn't know.
i had just discovered this channel and have been binge watching every floralogic video
thank you for loving plants
The flowers heat up?! I’ve never heard of a plant doing that, that’s wild!
Neither! I want to go touch them. Also imagining how awesome they'd look to anything that can see in infrared
The titan arum also heats up, but it’s to enhance the stench it releases to attract carrion insect pollinators.
eastern skunk cabbage in the US also produces heat allowing it to melt snow and be one of the first vegetative and flowering plants in the marshy areas it inhabits in the late winter and early spring.
Well now I know my go to plant for when I create a floating lake palace.
They forgot to mention it's bouncy properties. Basically a trampoline, great for getting to high platforms.
It looks like a platform in a delightful 3D platformer staring a cute frog.
Frogger 3D was the shit would play it for hours.
this was so cool. i learned something new today. i love everything about this planet from the millions of species to the beautiful animals
It's then really sad how humans do everything in their power to destroy this diversity. There's no other planet in this galaxy like Earth so we should take better care of it!
Glad we could teach you something new today! :)
An awesome weekend send off if you ask me!
Make Floralogic; i am so interested in plants because of this channel (thanks, Tasha!) Theyre amazing!!!!
Yeah, seeing how brutal lilies can be was probably the most surprising part of Green Planet.
Always great to hear from Tasha!
These water lilies must be the inspiration for the ones in legend of zelda breath of the wild.
Not all water lilies require constant warm water. There are some water lilies that grow in ponds in Yellowstone. These ponds are frozen over for more than 6 months every year but just a few weeks after they finally thaw out the leaves of hundreds of lilies are covering the surface.

I'm not sure how the water lilies survive under the ice for so long. I'm guessing their seeds and possibly their roots survive the winter at the bottom of the pond and grow back in the spring
Can you guys do Sea Grass next? I have always been fascinated how it its the only fully marine flowering plant.
Wow! I didn't know plants could produce heat! I would love to learn more about this behaviour 🌿
Best You Steal My Sunshine reference I've ever heard.
OMG, you listened to my request. thank you so much Floralogic. it made my day! 😀
Wow they're amazing!
I love watching your videos. Not just because of your warm smile, bright eyes, but because you expressions are so, ahhh .... expressive!. And your dialogue is cleaver and your presentation is clear, direct, and entertaining.
the album w/ "steal my sunshine" is a fun romp, front to back. 'you can't stop the bum rush' indeed.
Wonderful and informative video as always!

Tell the Bizarre Beasts channel! This one only does plants :)
@@catalpert7354 Isn't Animalogic all about animals?
Even if it takes a long time, I would still love to see their documentary on that nevertheless.
I think it would be really cool to do a video featuring the smallest and biggest flowers in proportion to their size.
That stock 10 year old child giggle in the beggining made me laugh so hard I almost dropped my phone and everyone on the bus is looking at me strange. Thanks.
In Portugal, we call the little ones "nenúfares" and the brazilians call them "vitória régia" which tells me their average lilypads are these ones.
Tasha is everything! ❤️
"If you don't get that Len reference, ask your parents"
Please, Tasha, I feel old enough already 😭😭😭
TASHA!!!!! GIRL YOU INSPIRE ME SOOOO MUCH!!! keep doin you 💚 🌻
Never even knew Tasha the Anazon is an accomplished hip hop artist. Actually goes pretty hard!
I would love either one on the Corpse flower and family or more aquatic plants
Absolutely Love Plants.
Nature's problem solvers since before anyone was around to call it Nature.
😄👍
I want a show about mosses. I'm a huge fan of moss.
I would love to see a Reeses Cup container in the color and style of a Victoria Amazonia.
Reese's; if you are listening; the ball is in your court --- free idea and I will not sue you for taking it (documented in writing.)
The beetles are warm and have food, that is all the instinctive they need.
Measuring Social Distance using bears is the best idea i've ever heard!
Unbelievable Structure
Imagine being an eight year old and going on this thing and you’re like “ this feels amazing!”
Tasha The Amazon you give me lifeeeee..really cool and interesting content as always..Sending you positive vibes from my plant babies and me in VA..thanks for all the effort you put into your vids..
Merci énormément pour tout ce que tu fais. J'apprend chaque fois avec toi.
Hi, I am here for the Len - Steal My Sunshine content.
Oh dang, this is a cool plant 🤣
I remember seeing these on a pond as a 5 year old kid one time, and they tripped me out...
Wow! Victoria amazonica's are really wired, and so cool! May I please make a suggestion? Teach us about Guar gum next, please!
When i first met this plant in a greenhouse, i was so excited to see and - unknowingly - to touch it... Damn it was hurtful!
Who! Love you Tasha! It was fascinating, I didn't know they had spikes
Victoria Amazonica sounds like either a superhero or D&D character name 🦸♀️🧝♀️🤘
regards from brasil this amazing plant is one of our national symbols e we hava a awesome indian history about her
Amazing plant!
Can you do one for the executioner wasp
Dragon fruit cactus!...Your channel is so fun, I'm hooked!
crossthread foliage twine never alternated
Holy crap! They are like the Mr. Turtle pool I had as a kid!
You're telling me they aren't inventions from videogames like Banjo-Kazooie???
This was friggin' awesome. Thank you!
Nature truly is amazing.
Thank you!
Thermogenic flowers? Fascinating!
Wow that Len joke hit a little hard, 1999 was a great year. Cheers to all my old folks.
Can yall do a video on Portulaca Oleracea (Common Purslane)
It's a super cool plant, that is commonly treated as a weed, but it's a nutritious plant, that grows easily.

Thank you for this video ❤️❤️❤️👍🏿👍🏽✌🏻✌🏼
Thank you
I just love this series!
Excellent video.
How does the flower generate the heat?
Suggestion for a video:
River Red Gum.
3:51
Me graduating in '96 and still don't know this reference lol
And somehow I don't think my mother is gonna be any help here 😂
love an light
Queen definition; "a huge overbearing floater with thorns"
-That's my Wife!!!
.......................yeah, I just needed to vent.
lobellia i just started growing at home and the seeds blew my mind they are so small like literal dust specks can you PLEASE explain the evolutionary benifit to having seeds that look like the Whos of Whoville live on em
amazing :) thanks Animalogic
Wow vicious. Thank you!
Thank for video! Can you tell about lavender? Why does it need this amazing smell?
Who keeps a book about horticulture and neglects his window shrubs. "Irony abounds"!
I would like to know more about Crotalaria Cunninghamii aka the hummingbird plant.
Can you please talk about the most popular Flower in the world?
The *SUNFLOWER* 🌻 🤗
Could you do a video on Parthenocissus quinquefolia (Virginia creeper) and how it's invaded most of the western United States and Canada?
I can just imagine movie where Leaf people would be able to build houses on it like in fantasy film 📽️
I’d very much enjoy a video on wild mustard. It’s my favorite plant
Tash is the poshest plant in the the pond. I bet the Victoria has tasty leaves, since the spines are so spurious..
Great video! Can you do an episode on Quaking Aspen (populus tremuloides)? And Giant Hogweed (Heracleum mantegazzianum)?
commode you know the funny bonus
Maybe the next thing to talk about is the trees in the amazon with the huge roots that live in water?
Y'all should do a video on the oleander. Sooo many people don't know that it is poisonous.
Now I want to read those novels you haven't written yet.
Somewhere there's someone out there explaining grizzly bear height going, "They're as tall as a Victoria Amazonica is wide."
I'd kind of like to see an episode on Spanish moss, Tillandsia usneoides. It was all over the place where I grew up.
Make a video about skunk cabbage, its something I grew up around and I like it!
this vid starts at 1:40
Found you straight away. Thank you. I tends to forget things whilst researching other things. Thanks 😊
3:57 A Len reference, makes me feel so old
Pond and these water plants creeps me out so much I have no idea why
Love your videos! Please talk about the protea or rooibos plant from Sout Africa 😁🙏🏼
Beautiful video!
What do the beetles do while they are trapped inside the flower?
Probably not much. What could they do?
