There used to be nice women's tights, made in Israel and exported, which had the brand name Sabra: the explanation was that it meant 'an Israeli who was born in Israel ... not an immigrant'. A good orange and chocolate liqueur had the same name! The cactus is I think the prickly pear or cactus pear ... which is American ... but no doubt naturalised in Israel as it is in my country and many other places.
