The Eastern Prickly Pear is a highly attractive cacti with cold, heat, and drought tolerance. In the spring pollinators and people flock to them.  Their cheery yellow blooms are large and individual masterpieces that blanket the plants for weeks starting in late May.  Once they are done blooming the purple fruits are borne on the pads giving another color flare until winter.  The pads take on a rosy blush in the winter offering a 365 day display.  The fruits and pads are edible but care must be taken to eliminate the spines which can be painful.  The Eastern Prickly Pear is native to the eastern United States and grow locally here (DE) at the beaches and in upland forests.  They prefer quick draining soils and will not tolerate wet feet.   A stellar plant for the front of the garden border, plantings en masse, or even in containers with quick drainage.  An easy plant for the beginner and equally fun for the experienced gardeners alike.

The same magic as the extreme chewer Kong cone!
Size: Large, Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
My lab hound mix LOVES this tire as much as he loves his extreme chewer Kong cones (we bought three of those!). He hasn't been able to cause any damage at all in the week or so that he's had it. We are always excited to find toys that he can't break! We're ordering a second tire for upstairs!

Great training tool
I bought this for my working line GSD for training. It’s awesome. The rope isn’t too long to handle during training sessions but still long enough I don’t lose a finger when paying out. The Kong holds up well, as expected. The only concern I would have for anyone would be the integrity of the rope on a heavy chewed which is the reason for the 4/5 star review. If used as a freely available toy left unattended with a moderate to heavy chewer the rope wouldn’t last very long. But I do love it!

Good toy, watch the string part
Good for the price! The rope did end up breaking off because my dogs chewed through it, but my dogs still play with the ball. The ball part can be loud if your dog throws it around on the floor. The ball is super tough and my dogs have yet to chew through it.
