Actually, she might like the Godiva. But I wouldn’t give her a cactus.

Cacti can be tricky. You'd think they wouldn't need much care, but they like to be dry most of the time and live in well-drained sand, neither of which I'd think you'd have in Florida. They can have beautiful blooms, though.

Have you ever eaten cactus?

Ha! The sand around here doesn't hold water to save it's life. The only places that hold water is the dirt from fallen leaves/branches/trees/pine needles. But just scratch that aside, sand.

Hm. Do you think cacti would do OK if you could plant some in your yard, then? (Hidden from your mother, of course.)

Here's a cool article on the subject, by the way.

It depends upon the cacti. It would have to be freeze hardy and take high humidity levels.
