Cactus plants are iconic for their prickly, fleshy stems and strikingly unique appearances. Adapted to survive in hot, dry climates, cacti store water in their thickened stems, allowing them to thrive in environments with minimal rainfall. With a wide variety of shapes and sizes, from spherical to columnar and branching forms, cacti add a sculptural and low-maintenance charm to gardens and indoor spaces. Their resilience, striking blooms, and distinctive silhouettes make cactus plants enduring favorites among plant enthusiasts worldwide.
