*** About Saguaros: Saguaros (Carnegiea gigantea), emblematic of the Sonoran Desert, stand tall in this image, adding to its distinctive southwestern flair. These cacti are renowned not only for their impressive heights, which can exceed 40 feet, but also for their longevity, as they can live up to 200 years. Saguaros grow slowly and bear flowers at the age of 35-50 years, primarily during the late spring. They are critical to the desert ecosystem, providing homes and food to diverse wildlife, including birds such as the Gila woodpecker and the elf owl.
