Cacti

Cacti are fleshy plants that are found in arid regions of the world. Like other succulents, cacti have ridged stems and thickened, fleshy leaves. The word “cactus” is derived from the Greek word “kaktos,” which means “thorn.” There are numerous species of cacti that vary in size, shape, and color.

Succulents

Succulents are a diverse group of plants that store water in their leaves, stems and roots enabling them to survive long periods without rainfall. Though most people think of succulent as a general term, it is a description of a family of plants. Succulents come from the Latin word “concent,” meaning “to collect.” This water storage is often used as an adaptation to drought or hot climates where rains are infrequent or inconsistent.

Here are a few of our favorites:
