Well, we gots cacti. Lots of them :) But even here there is a huge market for 'exotic' cactus that people plant in their yards. I do not understand that metric because the things are always leaving a calling card in some portion of my anatomy, but people do strange and wonderful things.
It's interesting, a cactus concession where you are. That takes what is really common here making it incredibly exotic there. Capitalism at it's very best.
Thanks for a great look at an exotic situation.
