*** About Saguaro Cactus: Named the state wildflower of Arizona, the saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea) is celebrated for its impressive height and expansive lifespans, often reaching up to 40-60 feet tall and living as long as 150-200 years. These cacti are not only a vital component of the desert ecosystem, providing habitat and nourishment to a wide array of wildlife, but they also stand as symbols of survival and resilience in the harsh desert environment. Each May and June, the saguaros blossom with creamy white flowers that open at night and close by the next midday, pollinated primarily by bats.
