Welcome to Cactus World!

When we lived in Tombstone, AZ, we bought a new doublewide mobile home and then landscaped it with desert plants. I found a patch of thorn-less prickly pear cactus and cut off a pad from each. I planted several pads in the front yard and then covered each about halfway then watered them. They grew like crazy as long as I watered and they grew to several feet high.

I needed some green "lawn" so I found a lady with a low-growing succulent and she gave me some plants. Again, I planted and watered them for a while. The following year I had a beautiful patch of "lawn" 4' X 6' that never needed mowing.
