***About Saguaro Cactus:

*** The saguaro cactus, recognized as the monarch of the Sonoran Desert, can grow to heights exceeding 40 feet and live for more than 150 years. These cacti are pivotal to the desert ecosystem, providing habitats and nourishment to a myriad of wildlife. Particularly during blooming season, their white, waxy flowers attract bees and birds, while their fruit, ripening by late June, feeds many desert animals. Saguaros start bearing flowers at around 35 years of age, with each fruit containing thousands of tiny seeds, yet few will become mature cacti, continuing the cycle of life in the harsh desert conditions.
