Read the Story before you view the photo!

A class of primary school students started a class project to make a plant pot to take home and wanted to have a plant in it that was easy to take care of, so it was decided to use cactus plants.

They planted the cactus seeds in the finished planters and they grew nicely but unfortunately were not allowed to take them home
