*** About Saguaro Cactus: Saguaro cacti are monumental symbols of the American West, particularly Arizona’s Sonoran Desert. These colossal plants are not only a vital component of the desert ecosystem, providing habitats and nourishment to a wide array of wildlife, but they are also culturally significant to many native tribes. Saguaros can grow up to 40 feet tall and live for over 200 years. Their slow growth and long lifespan coincide with their late blooming age, flowering first at 35 years old and reaching full height at 150. The saguaro’s blossoms are the state wildflower of Arizona.
