What a nice surprise-find on our 2nd last day of our awesome trip to Cerro Neblina. We found this beautiful Strophocactus wittii right in the garden of our hotel 😀. Strophocacus is notable as an ant plant. Ants live underneath the flat shoots that can really wrap around trees. They are also special for creating floating seeds that are dispersed by water in forests that are temporarily flooded.
