Bring home a splash of desert color with this vibrant Santa Rita Purple Prickly Pear, a stunning cactus native to Cochise County, Arizona. This striking pad is perfect for potting or propagation and thrives in full sun with minimal care.
🍃 Key Features
 Color: Pads blush rich pinky-purple in winter or under drought stress and fade to soft blue-grey in summer. Exposure to full sun deepens the color—especially when neglected or in dormancy.
 Flowers: Dark yellow blooms ringed with copper appear in spring to early summer, creating a dramatic contrast against purple-toned pads.
 Fruit: Produces edible purple fruits after flowering—loved by wildlife and great for subtle harvesting.
 Structure: A rounded, tree-like cactus that grows to 4–6 ft tall and 8–10 ft wide at maturity. Pads are nearly circular and often spineless or with few central spines.

🌿 Care & Growing Tips
Light: Full sun enhances color and bloom potential.
Water: Water every 2–3 weeks during warm months; monthly or less in cooler seasons.
Soil: Use well-draining cactus mix.
Cold Hardy: Tolerates down to 0°F to -5°F (USDA Zone 7) when kept dry.
Container Friendly: Makes a stunning potted specimen or low-maintenance landscape accent.
Note: The purple coloring is often a result of neglect or winter dormancy. Because we send healthy, well-cared-for pads, they may arrive more green-blue. Color change is encouraged with time and environmental stress (sun, cold, dryness).

My Puppy Loves this Indestructible Dragon
Size: Large, Color: Pink, Size: Large, Color: Pink
My puppy (8 month old black lab mix) loves, loves, loves her dragon. She has had it for 2 months now. It is one of her favorites and gets daily rough play time. It's her go-to toy for fetch and tug games, as well as just general mouthy play. The squeaker gave out after about 4 weeks, but she would binge squeak for prolonged periods (kind of like chomping on gum) so it was almost a blessing when it went silent. She still chomps on it, but at least now I don't have to hear it. Other than the fact that it's a little grungy and bedraggled from so much loving, it is still in amazing shape. The seams and fur are all still intact. There are no visible holes, rips, or weak spots. I love Chew Guard Technology. This dragon replaced her goDog Iguana (from PetSmart) that developed a tear in the fur after about 4 months of heavy use. (It was superficial, just the outer fur layer and not the innards, but we disposed of it before she could eat more fur.) She can be pretty rough on her toys and I can never predict if any given toy will last minutes or months. The goDog stuffies definitely fall into the "months" category, even with rough daily use. Edit: The dragon lasted about 6 months of intensive, hard play before it developed a small tear in the fur. I patched it a couple times, but once my pup discovers a weak spot, it's the kiss of death for any stuffed item. We had to dispose of the dragon (so sad) to keep her from eating any more of the fur. We replaced the dragon with the goDog Chameleon, which is still going strong. I think we will go back to the dragon for our next toy because it's just so darned cute. We gave the dragon to my niece for her golden retriever puppy who is very chew-happy. That dragon is also doing well. You've just gotta love that chew-guard technology. This is one tough toy.
