Some cacti, such as the prickly pear (Opuntia) and the cholla, are utilized as living fences in Central and South America. Others, such as Lophophora williamsii (cactus peyote), have long been used to treat hallucinogenic effects.
Ferns
Ferns are the most common houseplants despite not having flowers and fruit. However, they're easy to cultivate. The key to success lies in the growing medium that resembles the forest floor. It should be abundant in organic matter, but also have perlite or coarse gravel, to ensure proper drainage.

Several species of palms are harvested for their fruits and timber. Palms are used as shade trees in warm climates and indoor plants for the tropical look. For instance the peach palm (Brassica pendula) is grown for its edible fruit and as a plantation crop for coffee, while the ivory palm or tagua (Phytelephas aequatorialis) is used to produce vegetable ivory and rattan.
