*** About Saguaro Cactus: The saguaro cactus, a dominant figure in this artwork, is native to the Sonoran Desert and is celebrated for its impressive stature and iconic shape. Growing up to 40 feet tall, these cacti are known for their longevity, living up to 150 years or more. Characterized by their thick, ribbed stems and large arm-like branches that can number over 25 per plant, they serve as vital nesting sites for desert birds. The saguaro blooms with white flowers in late spring and produces red fruit in summer, which are eaten by the local wildlife. This cactus has not only adapted to the harsh desert conditions but is a crucial part of the ecosystem, providing shelter and food to countless desert inhabitants.
