Description
Purple cactus artistic is based on the cacti plant native to the Americas, ranging from Patagonia in the south to parts of western Canada in the north. Most cacti live in habitats subject to at least some drought. Many live in extremely dry environments, even being found in the driest deserts on earth. Cacti show many adaptations to conserve water. Most species of cacti have lost true leaves, retaining only spines, which are highly modified leaves. spines help prevent water loss by reducing air flow close to the cactus and providie some shade. All of these facts may be interesting to know, but what draws me to this gorgeous plant is it's shape, size and beauty! The deep purple in the spines almost look like candy ready to be eaten. But, I wouldn't advise it. Thanks for viewing..
