***About Saguaro Cacti

***: The saguaro cactus, native to the Sonoran Desert, is an iconic symbol of the American Southwest. These majestic plants can live for over 150 years and grow to heights of up to 40 feet. They are known for their distinctive "arms," which generally begin to grow after the first 75 years of life. The saguaro blooms with white flowers in late spring and produces fruit in the summer, which is an important food source for local wildlife. Remarkably adaptive, saguaros store vast amounts of water; their expandable pleated structure allows them to swell after rainfall and sustain them through dry conditions.
