*** About Saguaro Cactus: The saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea) is an iconic symbol of the American Southwest, particularly in Arizona. Towering over the landscape, this majestic plant can reach heights of up to 40 feet and live for more than 200 years. Saguaros are known for their distinctive "arms," which may number in the dozens and generally start to grow after 75 years. These cacti are vital to desert ecosystems, offering habitats and food for various birds and animals. Their blossoms, Arizona's state wildflower, bloom in late spring and early summer, opening primarily at night and closing by the next midday.
