00:00This guy, Moringa, Moringa, it's an abuelita plant, typical granny garden plant.
00:08Many grannies do indeed have this in their front yard, it's got health benefits, it's edible.
00:15It's not native, but it's got 7 times more vitamin C than oranges and 15 times more potassium than bananas.
00:21This is a cool, it's actually considered native, it's certainly native to Mexico, and we're basically in Mexico.
00:27They call it the flame flower.
00:30The Rio Grande Valley is the northern extent of the range of a lot of plants that grow in Mexico,
00:34and it's an important butterfly host plant too, and butterflies love to pollinate it.
00:38And we'll keep this too.
00:39Yeah.
00:40This actually, we got the chile piquin, you guys will probably want to keep this.
00:43Yeah, chile de monte.
00:45It's a native chile species, it's edible, super hot, tiny fruits.
00:49Just like the tinier it is.
00:51So we're definitely keeping this, absolutely.
00:53It's native and it's edible.
00:55And the birds love it.
