A German town has banned the cactus
The mayor of Plettenberg has forbidden the spiky plants from municipal buildings after a man needed medical attention when he injured himself on a cactus in a school.
The council said: "What was an injury to the adult man's arm could easily have been a serious injury to the face for a small child in the same place."
In a letter to local workers, Plettenberg's mayor Ulrich Schulte wrote: "Due to the current situation, all official and private cacti must be removed from municipal buildings."
He added: "Even if this order seems adventurous, excessive, superfluous or ridiculous to some employees, it has a serious background in terms of protecting the health of all employees and especially children in schools and daycare centres."
