Kykeion Posted October 9, 2013 So slice, I take that last post to mean you have made it home. Did all of your botanical samples arrive safely? And how may different locals did you manage to collect from? Reading back through the thread I count 3, Cajabamba, Chavin, and Huaraz. Sounds like you had an amazing trip and were able to collect some really cool souvenirs, definitely a bit jealous. I also think it is really neat that you located, photographed and collected from a specific specimen that has been previously documented in a number of ways and is sort of "famous." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adios Posted October 9, 2013 It looks like it is growing good in that rock pile,maybe that's what allowed it to grow so tall. Maybe someone planted it there like a tribute to the ruins! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
