ok well my parents have a small kind of hobby farm i guess in north central victoria (Near bendigo in australia) it has been very dry for the last decade or so there and the ground is a sort of sandy dry soil with lots of tiny rocks in it, it is almost always hot there and has rained very little for about 10 years probably ,more the olive trees (calamatas) that are there stuggle to grow to any large scale or produce any real amount of fruit due to the scarcity of water, my question is would it be viable to plant in various locations small peyote plants and san pedro seedlings? its very secluded and no one ever ventures near there so poaching is unlikely does anyone see any issues with doin this? is it possible kangaroos rabits or wombats or somthing would try to eat the cacti? also another question howcome there are no cacti in australian desserts the prickly pare seems to grow everywhere but somehow no cacti have managed to escape domestic gardens and grow wild in the vast australian deserts (to my knowledge anyway) is it not ideal conditions for cacti?
