Cactus and other succulents have a universal
appeal and almost every household has at least one from this
huge and varied group of plants.
Cactus are leafless plants that use thickened
stems to store water and food stores for times of drought,
the same principle applies to the other succulents but there
are some main differences between cacti and all other succulents.
What could be more inspiring than to
see a freshly opened flower emerging from a living stone!
