All about Cacti

​Succulents are plants that can live in very dry places and can store water.

A cactus uses its thick root that grows deep in the soil so it can reach water below. It then stores the water in its thick stem.

They are grown in pots and could be found inside the house or in the garden. Cacti flowers are very big and beautiful.
