Like all cacti?

[edit]

The statement "Like all cacti, Rhodocactus species have a succulent habit" is wrong. Genus Pereskia is explicitly described as "a small genus of about four species of cacti that do not look much like other types of cacti, having substantial leaves and non-succulent stems." -- Ies (talk) 08:59, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ies: yes, but Pereskia species have succulent leaves – "substantial" is used in the bit you quote above, but below it correctly says "succulent". So I think it's correct to say that all cacti have a succulent habit (but not all have succulent stems). Peter coxhead (talk) 11:25, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
