Cactus Teachings


My favorite chapter of my favorite book, by Michael Crichton, is called "Cactus Teachings." In it, Crichton speaks to a cactus. Sometimes, the cactus speaks back.

I've had this cactus for like 15 years... it was the size and shape of a tennis ball when I got it and after all that time, it's only about 6 inches tall. I like this plant because I can forget to water it for a month and it's no problem.
