List of U.S. state cacti

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

An overly short list with one entry matching the description and one loose fit (Texas has the prickly pear cactus as "state plant", not "state cactus"). The closest merger target I found would be a bit of a shoehorn fit. Adding a new category, "state cactus", to List of U.S. state and territory plants and botanical gardens makes that cobbled together list more indiscriminate. It already has the prickly pear cactus.

 * Delete. Considering that this list contains only two entries, only one of which can even be considered a real state cactus (as opposed to just a state plant happening to be a cactus), I don't see why this list was even formed to begin with. ωικιωαrrιor ᑫᑫ1ᑫ 16:58, 31 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - A list containing only two items is really not necessary. Especially, as pointed out above, only one of those two entries is actually valid.  Rorshacma (talk) 17:12, 31 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete- No real reason to have a list of two (one?) items. Hog Farm (talk) 17:28, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment not sure about this one. Are there more states with a state cacti? If so this may be a valid LISTN Lightburst (talk) 22:27, 31 January 2020 (UTC)
 * I have completed a merge of the one addition to List of U.S. state and territory plants and botanical gardens. CO's state cactus goes fine with the state lichens, herbs, and shrubs. Reywas92Talk 00:19, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
