*** About Saguaro Cactus: Native to the Sonoran Desert in Arizona, the saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea) is not only an iconic symbol of the American Southwest but also a vital part of the desert ecosystem. Reaching heights of up to 40 feet and living for more than 150 years, these towering cacti provide habitats and nourishment to a diverse range of wildlife. The cactus blooms in the late spring, producing white flowers that open during the night and early morning, and its fruit is especially loved by local birds and animals. The saguaro's significant stature and its ability to store large amounts of water make it supremely adapted to the harsh desert climate.
