Almost perfect
"I received 2 prickly pear cacti. The small one was perfect. I love it. The larger one was nice too except that it’s not very stable when I put it on the base piece. At first it wouldn’t even stand on its own. My son-in-law fixed it so it would stand. The base seems small for a 3 ft cacti. We made it work but it’s not totally stable. Otherwise I love the cacti they look very real. I’ve ordered several different cacti and I love them all. Will definitely order from this company again."
"Love this so much! I put it need plumbing so i don't have to worry about roots or over growth and it looks great. ❤️"

Wonderful Yard Plant
"Desert Steel offers such high quality products that are beautiful, realistic looking (my neighbors always touch it to make sure it is actually steel), easy to install, and need zero maintenance. We've got this beauty in a spot where literally nothing would grow. It really fills the space without feeling fake or invasive. Highly recommend."
