*** About Saguaro Cactus Flower: Native to the Sonoran Desert, the Saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea) flower is a symbol of beauty amidst aridity. Blooming primarily from late spring through early summer, each flower opens at night and lasts merely until the next midday, depending on the temperatures. These flowers are not only stunning but also serve as a crucial resource for local wildlife, including bees, birds, and bats, which rely on them for nourishment. The Saguaro cactus itself is an iconic image of the American Southwest, famous for its towering presence and deeply ribbed, water-storing trunk.
