***About Cholla Cactus:

*** The Cholla, native to the American Southwest and Mexico, is distinctive for its cylindrical stems and sharp barbs. These cacti thrive in arid environments, showcasing flowers ranging from yellow to red depending on the species. Notoriously tough, the cholla's segmented branches might break off easily, but this characteristic helps it propagate as each segment can root and form a new plant - a marvel of desert survival. Often called "jumping cholla" because the segments seem to leap when brushed against, these plants play a crucial role in their ecosystem, providing shelter and food for various dessert wildlife.
