Saguaros can tower over 40 feet tall and are often several hundred years old. They are not only vital to the desert ecosystem as shelters and food sources but also hold significant cultural value to the Native tribes of the region. Their blossoms, the state wildflower of Arizona, represent a beacon of resilience in the harsh desert clime.
