Australia does not have any native cacti, but introduced species, particularly the prickly pear, have spread to reach the fringes of the deserts. They were brought from the Americas and were either intentionally planted or escaped cultivation and have turned into a noxious invasive species.
Australian deserts feature spinifex, a low, hardy, spiky grass, and low, hardy bushes such as saltbush and bluebush.
