These towering cacti, some reaching as high as 40 feet, can live for more than 150 years. Saguaros bloom with white flowers in late spring and subsequently produce red fruit each summer, vital resources for the local wildlife. They are not just spectacular plant specimens but also a crucial part of the desert ecosystem. The saguaro's ability to store large quantities of water allows it to thrive in the harsh desert conditions.
