Cholla Field in Glendale, AZ

A field of Cholla where a new subdivision meets the desert mountains. Cholla (pronounced choy-a), also known as the Jumping Cactus, is one of the most beautiful, yet feared and hated, cacti in the desert. Get too close, and one of the plant’s pads will “jump” onto your skin, shirt, shoes, whatever it can. And since the entire pad is made up of needle-sharp spines, it’s not easily dislodged!
