Cactus: Cactus is a plant and the national flower of Mexico. To adapt to a water-scarce climate, the leaves evolve into short thorns to reduce water evaporation.

Due to the lack of chlorophyll in the body, it is difficult for Xianren Fist to carry out photosynthesis. Therefore, it is generally grafted on green cacti plants. If you plant it directly in the soil, it will not grow well.

Populus euphratica: Populus euphratica is a deciduous medium-sized natural tree with a diameter of up to meters, with a slender and soft wood and broad and fragrant leaves. Drought and waterlogging tolerant, Shengli is one of the rare tree species in nature.

Populus euphratica is sparsely shrub-like. The leaves are peculiar, because they grow in extremely arid desert areas, in order to adapt to the arid environment, the leaves that grow on the young branches of young trees are as narrow as willows, but the leaves on the old branches of large trees are round like poplars.
