    Great video! That wendlingeri is a super cool find! I’ve seen many all over Panama but never this close and never with such a big inflorescence! Next time you’ll need to spend some more time up there, many different hiking trails to discover!

    Love it Jake... that wendlingeri reveal was masterful. And the shakey cam gives me Blair Witch vibes. 🧙‍♀ Jokes!, I swear It was awesome.
    So I spent 2 weeks in Panama City with my wife back in 2011 (pre-kids, haha 🥲), well before I got into the plant hobby. and I absolutely regret not spending more time looking at the flora, literally every day now... this was the ULTIMATE REMINDER. I may need to make a trip back just so I don't feel so stupid about it. 😝
