One of Texas' Oldest Peyotes
🕑 Added 2024-09-18 04:18:19 +0000 UTC...and a few pics of Hibiscus coulteri, the yellow flowers Desert Hibiscus.
This specimen is probably one of Texas' Oldest Peyotes, located on private land and we'll acres for and guarded. It also displays the "cristate" or fasciated form, whichany cacti species do, creating a growth pattern that resembles an undulating, twisting wave.

At a time the United States' ignorance continues to grow I'm so glad I support a channel like this that is a daily feed of botanical wonder.

If I were religious, this would be the alter at which I'd worship.

Thanks for sharing these with us. Most of us will never get to see one like this probably ever in our lifetime.

My favorite always. I was lucky enough to be invited to many ceremonies of the grandfathers and will never forget the beautiful people and experiences

Very very old, in captivity and with grafting one can get them to grow at an accelerated rate, but out in the wilderness and normal desert water… we are talking like 1-2 mm a year.
