Fans discuss whether Jerry's statement that he has no plants contradicts the visible cactus in his apartment, with most agreeing that cacti don't count as typical indoor plants.

I didn't see this one in the FAQ, but I noticed in The Robbery, when J, G and E are admiring how much light is in the apartment they are looking at, Jerry says, "I don't have any plants." However, in his apartment, there is a big cactus next to the window by the computer desk.

I use to have a cactus in my office, but if someone had asked if I had plants in my office I very well could have said no. When I think of "plants" indoors I think more of ferns and other such things with leaves.

That was one big cactus plant. A desktop cactus is like a cup of consumme. That 6 foot tall cactus he had was like a big bowl of lobster bisque, yada, yada ......

What might have been said... Jerry: A cactus is a plant. George: It's not a plant unless you have to water it at least 3 times a week.

Jerry: Do you know what you are talking about here, or are you making this up? George: Making this up.

J: I don't have any plants. K: What do you mean? You have that giant cactus at your appartment! J: A cactus is not a plant. K: You know, my sister married a cactus once...
