An interesting possible cross of plants was posted on Reddit—Dadjokes on May 23, 2021:
“I heard a cactus fell in love with a fruit tree. They make a prickly pear.”
“Pear” is a pun on “pair.”
Wikipedia: Opuntia ficus-indica
Opuntia ficus-indica, the Indian fig opuntia, fig opuntia or prickly pear, is a species of cactus that has long been a domesticated crop plant grown in agricultural economies throughout arid and semiarid parts of the world. O. ficus-indica is the most widespread and most commercially important cactus. It is grown primarily as a fruit crop, and also for the vegetable nopales and other uses.
