*** About Saguaro Cactus

***: Native to the Sonoran Desert in Arizona, the saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea) is an iconic symbol of the American Southwest. With a potential lifespan exceeding 200 years, these towering plants can grow up to 40 feet tall, and their distinctive arms generally begin to grow after the first 75 years. The saguaro blooms with white flowers in late spring and produces red fruit in summer, which is an important food source for local wildlife and indigenous communities. The cactus plays a crucial role in desert ecology, offering habitat and sustenance to a variety of desert dwellers.
