A guide to a sticky situation! Don't be afraid to own a cactus! STUCK ON CACTUS takes the mystery out of owning and raising these often-overlooked plants. Written especially for beginners, the book takes a light-hearted approach toward the care of succulent plants. Not only is STUCK ON CACTUS fun to read and easy to understand, but it is filled with useful information, like how to keep from killing your cactus in the first two months (very important), how to fight nasty cactus-eating monsters (like red spider mites and thrips), and how to put together you own cactus grower's tool kit (filled with high-tech equipment like bent forks and chopsticks).
