How to make cacti spawn in custom desert?

I'm trying to make a dimension that's a mirror dimension to the overworld and I know how to make deserts but, I don't know how to get cacti to spawn. I left the default tree per chunk value at 1 and tried to see if I could spawn cacti via making them into custom trees with cactus as the stem and air as the branches but, nothing spawned.

You could make cactus features and use those in the spawning of the biome(Multiple features because you probably want varying heights). It's slightly inefficient but I really don't know too much about biome generation.
