No one has ever called me a male chauvinist pig, but some of Tepper's later work got so strongly feminist that I quit reading. ![]() I wouldn't say that Tepper is one of my favorite authors - this is my first post on her, in over 1,000 such - but she is certainly readable, and I found that there was a lot more to Grass than I remembered from my earlier reading.

The longest living cactus is thought to be the Saguaro cactus, which is native to the desert of Arizona and Mexico. ![]() However, with good care many indoor cactuses can live for many decades. Cacti growing outdoors in ideal conditions tend to live longer than those cultivated as houseplants. It turns out they are all fairly long lived plants, but there is quite a variation in their lifespan.Ĭactus lifespan typically ranges from 10 to 200 years, depending on the species. There are loads of different species of cactus, over 1500 in fact. It got me thinking, just how long do cacti live? I can’t say I’ve kept every cactus I’ve owned thriving and happy to this day, but it’s usually been my less than stellar care that has been the problem, rather than the limit of the lifespan of my cactus. I’ve been growing cacti since I was a child, but I’ve never seen one die of old age. ![]() ![]() ![]() Internalized bias and social pressure exacerbate the damage to the men’s budding relationship, but luckily, as the wince factor rises, expertly sketched supporting characters assume the comedic responsibility.
