*** About Saguaro Cacti: Native to the Sonoran Desert in Arizona, the saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea) is not only an iconic symbol of the American Southwest but also a vital part of the desert ecosystem. Towering at heights that can exceed 40 feet, these massive cacti can live for more than 150 years. Saguaros grow their first "arm" around the age of 70, which increases their reproductive capacity—each arm can bear flowers and fruits. Saguaros are renowned for their spectacular white blooms which appear in late spring and are considered the state wildflower of Arizona.
