*** About Cactaceae: The Cactaceae family, predominantly found in the new world, is most diverse in regions like Mexico and the southern United States, especially Arizona. Adapted perfectly to the harsh desert environments through their unique structure and metabolism, cacti are not only vital for the ecosystem but also culturally significant to many indigenous and local communities. Their ability to store water in arid conditions makes them survivors of the plant kingdom. The saguaro cactus, a giant among them, is iconic to Arizona’s Sonoran Desert and can live for over 150 years, growing as tall as 60 feet.
