This cactus mistletoe is a parasite that penetrates the surface of cacti and grows within. A year after being sustained by the cactus’ water store, their vibrant flowers erupt ready to be pollinated.

All cacti flower but they aren't long and tubular like those mistletoes. Generally cacti have a large hypanthium and attractive actinomorphic flowers with indeterminate numbers of showy tepals spirally arranged.

In Chile we call this parasitic plant "Quintral" and Mapuche people (one of our indigenous tribes) use the "Quintral" that grows on Maqui trees to treat migraines and improve memory. And the one shown above (Quintral del Quisco) is said to lower cholesterol levels. Always dreamed of seeing a timelapse of it. Sooo beautifully recorded 🥲 Gracias 💙 🦉🪶For the bird lovers: Tenca (Chilean mockingbird), Picaflor Chico (Green-backed firecrown hummingbird), Cóndor (Andean Condor)

It is a good thing. It adds to biodiversity and eliminates weakened cactuses. It seems bad for the cactus in question, but it just adds another selective pressure which, long term, leads to stronger cacti.

It's neither good nor bad. It just is. Like all of the rest of nature. Things can only be good or bad in relation to a goal, and nature doesn't have a goal because it is not sentient. Humans tend to anthropomorphise nature far too much.
@bendlor
@bendlor 2 жыл бұрын
Good and bad are relative terms and so can't really apply to the dog eat dog dynamic of nature that is inherent to its existence and sustainability in the first place. However in more human terms, it doesn't cause any pain/suffering nor is it a threat to the cactus species extinction for instance. Meaning that it can be said that it isnt 'bad' (per se) ;)

I live in an area with a lot of Trychocereus ( Echinopsis), a lot of them have this parasitic plant in them, they dont look like it harm them and they keep growing and blooming as normal.

Exelente!! Es probable que este video haya sido grabado en el desierto de Atacama, Chile. Aquí, esa planta parásita la llamamos "Quintral" y ataca todo tipo de árboles y cactus 🌵, y está presente a lo largo de todo el país.

That's not a mockingbird. It's a related species, a Bendire's Thrasher. [EDIT: I'm wrong, it's a Chilean mockingbird.] Otherwise, another brilliant presentation as I was totally unaware of this parasitic plant.

This particular Tristerix (Tristerix aphyllus) is endemic to Chile. Also, the bird is in fact a mockingbird, it's called Tenca (Mimus thenca) known for imitating other birds singings.

Beautiful job, Sir David, but those are not white seeds. They are whole fruits known as pseudodrupes. The embryo in the center lacks a seed coat. It's the same thing with the Christmas mistletoes.

@@SGIndra Most mistletoes are hemiparasites and tap into their host plant for water/nutrients, while also photosynthesizing to varying extents from species to species or at different points during its development. Some mistletoes, such as Tristerix, are fully parasitic and live almost entirely within their host plant and do not photosynthesize. Parasitism and loss of chlorophyll/photosynthesis evolved independently in the distantly related Rafflesia.
