Common Names: Tall Prickly Pear, Elata Prickly Pear, Argentine Prickly Pear
Appearance
A vigorous, upright-growing prickly pear with elongated, flat green pads and a bold, architectural form.
Pads are lightly spined with scattered glochids and may develop a slightly bluish or gray-green tone in strong light.
In the ground, it can reach 10–15 feet tall, forming a tree-like cactus with branching pads.
Care & Growing Conditions
Light: Prefers full sun; bright light promotes strong growth and pad development.
Soil: Well-draining cactus or sandy soil mix.
Watering: Water sparingly; allow soil to dry out completely between waterings. Highly drought-tolerant once established.
Temperature: Thrives in USDA zones 9–11; protect from temperatures below 25°F (-4°C).
Humidity: Prefers low humidity and dry conditions.
Flower
Produces showy yellow to orange flowers in late spring to summer along the pad edges.
Flowers may be followed by edible fruits (tunas) when grown outdoors in ideal conditions.
Toxicity
Non-toxic to humans and pets, but glochids and spines can cause irritation. Handle with care.
Important Note
Each Opuntia elata varies naturally in pad size, height, and branching habit. The plant you receive may not be the exact one pictured but will be the same species and quality.

Good purchase, dog loved it, lasted months
Size: 8 Inch, Color: Tree Branch
My dog loved it, took several months before she destroyed it. I did eventually have to throw it out because she managed to start breaking pieces off and eating it.

Dog Loves It, But Durability/Safety Major Issue
Size: 8 Inch, Color: Tree Branch
My 9 month old Frenchie loves it, but she got pretty sick this weekend and was vomiting all day...next day she finally threw up a big chunk of this toy...just beware if your dog is a heavy chewer, this may not be the right fit for you. Not the best durability...

She loves them, therefore I love them too
Size: 5.5 Inch, Color: Ring Toy
My furbaby LOVES these, especially the peanut butter flavored ones. I still regularly brush her teefers, but these do help with dental care.

Made mostly of POLYPROPYLENE PLASTIC and should not be injested.
Size: 8 Inch - 2 Pack, Color: Tree Branch
BAD PRODUCT. DO NOT BUY THESE FOR YOUR DOG. They are made mostly of POLYPROPYLENE PLASTIC. It even says on the package - "CAUTION: Product is not intended to be eaten or ingested. If you believe your pet has swallowed a piece, please take away and contact veterinarian if needed.
Our dachshund went to town on one of these and had diarrhea for two days and cost us several hundred dollars in vet bills to do x-rays and medicine for the poor dog. What do you think a dog is going to do with a dog chew? Just find another product. This one isn't worth it.
