If you don’t have a green-thumb or you are away for weeks on business trips cacti and succulents might be your best bet. Even if you don’t have perfectly sunny windowsills or you kill every shrub, these plants are for everyone. Cacti come in many different shapes and colors, and they are real survivors. The prickly spines are actually modified leaves and through their shallow root systems they soak up water that they store for a long time. This makes cactus a very independent plant that suits every condition and every gardener.
