*** About Saguaro Cacti: Saguaro cacti are iconic symbols of the American West, specifically the Sonoran Desert, which spans Arizona, the Mexican state of Sonora, and small parts of California. These towering cacti can grow to over 40 feet tall and often live for 150 to 200 years. Saguaros grow slowly, taking up to 70 years to develop a side arm, which are often used to gauge their age. Not merely picturesque, these cacti are vital to their ecosystem, providing habitats and food for desert wildlife. They bloom with white flowers in late spring and early summer, followed by red fruit that is particularly important for local birds and other animals.
