*** About Saguaro Cactus: The saguaro cactus, native to the Sonoran Desert in Arizona, can grow over 40 feet tall and live up to 200 years. Recognizable by its towering, tree-like form with arms that can extend outward or upward, the saguaro is not only a symbol of the American Southwest but also serves an important role in the desert ecosystem. Home to many desert birds, including the Gila woodpecker and the elf owl, the saguaro provides both food and shelter within its thick, water-retentive walls. During blooming season, white flowers crown the tops of these cacti, later transforming into red, edible fruit.:
