About
The Cactus emoji (🌵) is your go-to for channeling that prickly, don't-mess-with-me energy or representing the desert vibes of hot, dry situations. It's perfect for when you're feeling a bit defensive, talking about actual deserts, or just embracing your inner tough-but-beautiful nature that thrives where others wilt.

The cactus emoji was one of the original nature emojis added way back in Unicode 6.1, making it an OG member of the plant kingdom representation—probably because someone realized you can't properly text about Arizona without it.
