Lol...That's a great way to keep burglars away, great idea!!
That's a serious Cactus...ouch!!

Hahaha! What window?

PERFECTION! Your friends dad is a genius!

Where does he live? I'm coming to steal that one too!

Is this kinda the opposite of Rosemarie's thread - 'Have Cactus Window Shades, Won't Trespass' ? Better to have a Poked Tom than a Peeping Tom, unless you're Tom of course...

There used to be a lady on here named Marilyn that lived here in Oceanside and grew tons of succulents,cacti,jades and such,and she did the same thing under her bedroom window,only she used crown of thorns.I kinda lost touch with her due to my health problems,so i don't know if she comes here anymore or not.Matter of fact i don't even know if she is still amomg the living.

Don't forget to keep them trimmed back just enough in case of fire so you can jump out to safety or throw blankets or pillows over them for added protection.And yes, my husband says I worry too much about everything.

I would buy the meanest small little dog I could find, that barks a lot. I would also put up motion lights. It's a shame that plant is covered with buds. Plants are only stolen when times are hard. I really sorry it hurts to lose a plant. l I have a connection with all of mine, I hope it never happens again. I hope a police report will be filed. Norma

Aren't Agave americana used in some parts of Mexico as natural barriers? When grown well and dense, they must be impossible to walk through without massive protection.
