Hey yall! I wanted to add a lil something to my cactus garden and placed a single strand of mezoo around the edge and now it’s completely taken over….i think its pretty and the cacti seem to be doing fine but im wondering if i should thin the mezoo out a lil for more room for the cacti to grow?

Gosh! Thats beautiful! I’ve always wanted one, but didn’t know its name. It’s called Mezoo? Your cactus are beautiful! Maybe you should have just put green moss around the edge of the cactus planter…..no chance of it taking over!
