An Array of Colors and Textures

A cactus’ thin, delicate skin can be any shade of green, including light, medium, and dark, as well as gray and almost blue. Although they have a harsh appearance, a cactus’ spines contrast sharply with the rest of the plant and are frequently among its most attractive features.
