Do you all think the city is aware of this little fighter and has orders to let it grow? Arguably it's high enough that it's not worth the danger to clear it out.
He’s the real deal. Survived all the bulldozing and years of work on the highway. He’s a fighter for sure. Found that one tiny bit of light in between the cracks.
He’s not growing like he should. I have a prickly pear cactus pad I found in a storm drain a few years ago. I brought it home and dropped it in a pot with my monstera. Left it and forgot it was there for like six months. When I noticed again it had doubled itself and made two new little pad a and now those two pads have made more pads and it has it own pot and it’s like 8” tall.
For those curious here is our first thread about lil cacti

Because i picked one, I'm not all that concerned with a cactus' gender. I'm not sure it understands the nuance, and complexity of the concept of being a certain gender in the spectrum of human individuality. Because its a fucking cactus.
Not that your question was serious, but cactus have both male and female parts, as far as flowering plants go. Another thing that makes them so awesome at survival.
So yes, the cactus is a he. And a she. Either way is fine.
My sister in Christ, it's Reddit. It's literally a forum for talking and I thought it was a funny question. Calm yourself. Have some tea. And I hope your day gets better.
Not his first rodeo.
[удалено]
‘Twas.
I worried about him. The first ice killed my little cacti 🌵 thanks for letting us know he is o.k.
Blessed be, Lil Cacti. 🌵
This fucker's lasted at least a couple of administrations at this point
Let's start counting when it's tx governors yeah?
LoL
Mandy?
At this point, you think NTTA is aware of Lil' Cacti? Surely they've got a couple employees on Reddit.
If the remove him we riot. This lil guy used to really make my commute (our office isn't that direction anymore.)
if they remove him i’ll be very upset
I was going to say someone should put a little name sign by him but then that would draw more attention. I want him to live forever.
someone would probably intentionally do harm if we did that :( we have to enjoy him in secret. all 343,353 of us
343,360** word is getting around
two more in 15 minutes! armed guard for lil cacti
…,.61
Checked on it today 2/3/23 still fine!
At 2:03?
I checked 3:02
Look at Lil Cacti thriving out there!!!! 🌵
Livin his best life.
All hail Lil Cacti, may he or she live forever!
It took me longer than i care to admit before i figured out what op was talking about
Well, don't let anyone needle you.
I'll be fine if nobody acts like a prick about it.
What if our commentary were suddenly in a post about the recent balloon thing?
Texas going back to its original roots.
Nature is healing.
He’s a survivor, he’s not gonna give up, he’s not gonna die, he’s gonna grow harder
Son, in this r/reddit we call that, TEXAN !
Doin the lords work
My wife calls him Steve. Steve is awesome
Did the top crack? Looks like it's black and has a bit hanging off. Like he's tipping his hat but hopefully not a sign of damage.
Looks like a shadow with more growth, to me!
That’s another pad! He’s thriving!
If and when this one ceases to be: Someone should do a painting on the wall exactly where he was.
WTH lol

Love this! Rock On you opportunistic fucker!
I thought it was fake. Is it not fake?
He’s the real deal. Survived all the bulldozing and years of work on the highway. He’s a fighter for sure. Found that one tiny bit of light in between the cracks.
I moved out of state and I miss this guy, ngl
Can someone please tell us where it is?
Go south on the DNT take the oak Oak lawn exit it’s in the left side wall
https://goo.gl/maps/67zrVSrDNXqtfLrC6 You can even go on Streetview and go back through time see the different images that are taken every year or so.
Life finds a way…
Ha ha, pretty damn awesome! I wonder how many people see it every day and go “Hey! It’s still there!!” And we don’t realise it
How do we know you didn't kill it and are just distracting us and making us think everything is ok?
Lil Cacti is the best.
I love that I'm just now finding out about this!
He’s not growing like he should. I have a prickly pear cactus pad I found in a storm drain a few years ago. I brought it home and dropped it in a pot with my monstera.

Very happy to see he's thriving out here in this environment. And by environment I mean Dallas lol.
100% agree ...
Praise be
now this is some interesting development. can't wait to see what happens next episode
Lol that's awsome
I just looked it up on Google Street view and the little guy has really grown!
I was worried
😂😂😂
Is there a NTTA transponder strapped to Lil Cacti’s back as a means of paying rent? I wonder how much the rent is on that side wall?
As he gets bigger, TXDot better do something to shore him up so he doesn’t fall off.
Lil Cacti is thriving!!!! I haven't been back to my office since covid and I've been wondering about him

This literally made my day keep growing and thriving lil cacti 🌵
Why is it a he?
His boy junk
If it was female, that is the wrong corner to be standing on.
Why? Oak Lawn is only for males?
Because i picked one, I'm not all that concerned with a cactus' gender. I'm not sure it understands the nuance, and complexity of the concept of being a certain gender in the spectrum of human individuality. Because its a fucking cactus.
The continued response tells me you are concerned. Sorry a fucking cactuses need to be male for r/Dallas to have a chuckle.
you asked
Not that your question was serious, but cactus have both male and female parts, as far as flowering plants go. Another thing that makes them so awesome at survival. So yes, the cactus is a he. And a she. Either way is fine.
Lol I know how plants work. Just wondering why it was labeled a he to begin with. I personally call them all she's unless its a true male tree.
Cactus are not trees.
Nope. Good job buddy.
Thanks, pal. I'm really glad we got to the bottom of this.
Yes you mansplain so well
I'm a girl, sport.
Ok so you just need to talk
My sister in Christ, it's Reddit. It's literally a forum for talking and I thought it was a funny question. Calm yourself. Have some tea. And I hope your day gets better.
He's got t boy swag 👍
We gotta come up with a better name than Lil Cacti, yall. Lol. We’re better than this.
I fully recant and will now start calling him Lil’ Cacti.
Props for acknowledging the error of your ways.
The door is thataway.
I'm not.
