cactus gardens

Arid plant displays

A cactus garden is a landscaped area featuring cacti and other succulents, typically in dry climates or xeriscaping where water conservation matters.

These gardens showcase drought-tolerant plants arranged among rocks, gravel, and sand: The cactus garden at the botanical center displays over two hundred species.

The term also applies to smaller indoor or container arrangements.
