I've been resisting buying a cactus for awhile now and I think you just gave me the courage to put the idea out of my head forever lol

For anyone feeling the same, maybe check out caudiciforms as a substitute! They grow slow, don't need much water, and come in a bunch of cool varieties. It's like bonsai without all the pretentiousness
