Introducing the Mammillaria elongata Pink Nymph, which is a hybrid plant that combines the characteristics of Mammillaria elongata and Mammillaria microhelia. The Mammillaria elongata Pink Nymph is also known by its common name, Pink Nymph Cactus.  

Native to Central Mexico, this Mammillaria cactus is found in cracks between rocky outcroppings, creating long stem cascades with pendant offsets.  

With its slightly tapered, conical stems, the Mammillaria pink nymph produce offsets around their base, which can be left in place or removed for new growth. These stems can grow up to 6 inches in height and form clumps over time. This pink nymph cactus with tubercles features starbursts of creamy beige spines, adding texture to any collection and making it suitable for both novice and experienced growers. 


When it comes to flowers, this hybrid Mammillaria plant was the first to exhibit Mammilliaria pink flowers, unlike the typical yellow ones, and blooms throughout late winter and spring.

This unique characteristic has made it a favorite among gardeners looking to add a pop of color to their gardens during the colder months.

When caring for the Mammillaria Pink Nymph, it prefers bright, indirect light, so placing it near a window with filtered sunlight would be ideal.

When it comes to watering, it's important to allow the soil to dry out between waterings to avoid overwatering.

As for soil, a well-draining cactus mix works best. When growing indoors, this Mammillaria cactus prefers temperatures between 60-75°F. For outdoor cultivation, it is typically suited for zones 9-11, but it can also be grown indoors in colder zones. 

If you're interested in propagating the Pink Nymph, you can do so by taking offsets or pups that grow at the base of the plant and replanting them in well-draining soil. Just make sure to allow the offsets to callous over for a few days before planting them. 

The Pink nymph has similarities with the copper king variety Mammillaria elongata Copper King in terms of its coloration. While the pink nymph variety features soft pink tones, the copper king variety showcases a rich copper color, making them distinct and unique additions to any succulent collection.  

Give it a try and enjoy the beauty and intrigue this unique Mammillaria elongata pink nymph brings to your home or garden!

Not “indestructible” enough for my pup
Color: Printed, Pattern Name: Giraffe
My pup loves the toy but it is far from indestructible. Only took him 72 hours to rip the ears off & destroy the springy neck part of the toy. So although he enjoyed destroying it, It’s no longer safe for him to play with. For added context, he’s a little over a year old, 50pound, golden doodle puppy. He’s been going through a destructive phase for the last 7 months so this is like toy #30 thats failed it’s “indestructible” claims. The search for a indestructible toy continues!

Power Chewer Loves This!
Size: Medium, Color: Antler
This is my dog's new favorite chew! She loves that she can hold it in her paws. I think she really loves the taste and texture of it. I don't give her antlers as I have heard too many horror stories about broken teeth. I also don't give her nylon toys as I have also heard a lot of horror stories of broken teeth as well as concerns about them digesting the plastic. This is between antlers and bully sticks, which is perfect for a power chewer. I feel comfortable with her eating the pieces that flake off this toy. She loves chewing and she will default to this toy when she wants to help calm down. I don't notice much of a smell. It does flake, but not enough I will even take a star off. Plus, it's plant based and vacuums up easily once dried. It doesn't capture her attention as much as bully sticks or beef cheek chews, but it's much less expensive over time and doesn't stink up our living room! She will also always pick this over any of her rubber chews. Great product and recommend it for all the power chewers.

Crumbly, odd texture
Size: Large, Color: Duo Pack
Neither of my dogs were very interested in these. They did chew on the antler-shaped versions more so than the infinity-style versions. When they did chew on these, they didn’t hold up well or last long. These have a strange, crumbly texture when chewed. You’ll find bits and pieces of these chews where the dogs have been chewing. Will not be reordering.

This appears to be a good alternative to the hard plastic chew toys.
Size: Large, Color: Duo Pack
My dog is a heavy chewer. I decided to try this brand out after using a different brand for quite awhile. while my dog seems to like it and carries it around (the pretzel shaped one) he doesn't seem to attack it as whole heartedly as his old brand, I'm thinking it might be the shape, we will see when he wears it out and I switch him to the antler shape. What I like most about it is it doesn't tear my hand up like the other brand did after he had been chewing it for awhile. While it is wearing down some it seems to do it in a more mild manner. Since we haven't had it long I would give this 3.5 stars because I don't know if it will last as long and not sure f it is just the shape that has him more mellow with it.
