Prickly Things





There are many species of cacti that thrive in the dry climate of Antigua. We took a walk recently through a spot where Turk’s Head cacti were everywhere. They are beautiful plants that have delicate pink flowers and produce a small pink fruit called a cactus strawberry. It tastes a little like kiwi fruit. You’ve got to watch your step though as there are plenty of things that will scratch you!
