Almost six years ago, young Punky tore into my yard plants with great abandon. She dug up an azalea and managed to drag it through the doggy door and place the entire thing, complete with muddy roots, over my sleeping wife's face. Here is a pictorial of my remaining plants:
yeah, that's what i was thinking, we have on cactus where we are
"The plant that draws the most attention in Point Pelee's fields is the prickly pear cactus. It is so rare in Canada that the Ontario government in the summer of 1987 added it to its official list of protected plants."
I think I'm seeing daylilies (am I?) besides the opuntia and the aloe, and I don't know the name of the first cactus like plant with the long thinnish branches.
For a number of years I used to keep prickly pear (opuntia) in a pot, and we would drag it in, very very carefully, at christmastime and garland it with chili pepper lights. The thorns were good for hanging the odd ornaments on...
We had a plant like that once. It's not a true cactus, but an African succulent if I remember correctly. The flowers were beautiful, but had a horrific odor that smelled like rotting flesh.

I got down close to take that photo. Didn't notice any kind of odor. Maybe it's related but not the same.
