Some might. The milkweed likes ditches and creek sides. Not really sure about the others. Cactus, I would say no.

They are edible, yes. Full of seeds but the jelly from them is popular and good. You can't just pick them and eat them outright, as they have little splinters on the fruit. That has to be dealt with first. :)

Rosehips are also used for jelly.
