Capable of growing over 40 feet tall, saguaros have a lengthy lifespan, often exceeding 150 years. They bear white flowers in late spring and red fruit in summer, providing sustenance to local wildlife. Saguaros are not only crucial for the desert's ecological balance but also hold cultural significance for native peoples. Their towering forms and resilience make them a key subject in artwork depicting southwestern landscapes.
