Can you live without a cactus?
Yes, people can live without cactus plants if they're outside the plant's native range in North and Latin America. But no, they can't live without cactus plants if they're within the plants' native ranges. Within desert and jungle America, the cactus plays a key role in the environment. For example, the desert cactus is the main vegetative cover that conserves water, disperses sunlight, holds soil together, and provides color and oxygen in an otherwise drab, dry, extreme, harsh environment. The jungle cactus interacts in mutually beneficial ways with the trees on which it's anchored.
What can cactus plants live with plenty of?
It depends upon the type of cactus. There are two main types of cactus plants. One is the cactus that's native to the deserts of North and Latin America. The other is the jungle cactus that's native to the subtropical and tropical jungles of Latin America.A desert cactus can live with plenty of light and heat. It doesn't like plenty of humidity, moisture, and vegetative competition. In contrast, a jungle cactus can live with plenty of heat, humidity, moisture, and vegetative competition. It isn't used to plenty of direct sunlight. Instead, it's used to the light that filters down through the different layers of vegetative growth within the subtropical and tropical jungles of Latin America.
What is the life span of a Schlumbergera gaertneri Easter Cactus?
The Easter blooming cactus [Schlumbergera gaertneri] is a successful houseplant. So it can live for many years if its environment supports its needs. It's a jungle cactus from Brazil. So it's the opposite of the desert cactus in its needs.Specifically, the Easter cactus isn't used to direct, harsh or strong light. That's because in its native environment it's light deprived. The tropical forest is a thick, dense, dark place for a growing jungle cactus. What it lacks in light it more than makes up for in moisture. It handles warm, humid environments. So it won't live long if it's subjected to long hours of direct or strong light. Neither will it live long if it's put on a little or no watering schedule.
Can cactus plants be infected by cold places?
Yes, cactus plants can be infected by cold places. The two main types of cactus plants are the desert cactus and the jungle cactus. The desert cactus handles higher heat and light levels and lower moisture levels. The jungle cactus handles higher heat and humidity levels and lower light levels.But neither type of cactus handles cold, damp temperatures. Chilling temperatures makes a cactus susceptible to all sorts of fungal problems, such as basal stem rot. The cactus' tissue ends up softening and blackening. It has to be dried out or removed.
Do pigs live in the jungle?
pigs do not, although wild boars and warthogs do.
Can cactus plants grow in dirt?
Yes, desert cactus plants can grow in dirt. But no, jungle cactus plants aren't used to growing out of the ground. They grow with their roots exposed to the air. In the jungle, the problem is the reverse of the desert. It's a situation of high moisture levels and low light. So jungle cactus plants root high up on tree trunks and branches to get closer to the filtered sunlight of the thick, dense, dark tropical forests.
