Cylindropuntia bigelovii, the teddy bear cholla, is a cholla cactus species native to Northwestern Mexico, and to the United States in California, Arizona, and Nevada. It grows to be 3-4 ft tall and because it doesn`t have very many seeds, it drops off lower branches and they stick to passing animals which then drop off the animal and begin to grow, creating a clone plant.
