*** About Saguaro Cactus: The saguaro cactus, native to the Sonoran Desert in Arizona, is more than just a symbol of the American West. It is a crucial component of the desert ecosystem, providing habitat and nourishment to a broad array of wildlife. Saguaros can grow to be over 40 feet tall and are known for their iconic "arms," which generally begin to sprout after 50 to 75 years of growth. Remarkably adapted to their harsh environment, they store large amounts of water, their thick skin and sharp spines ward off predators. The saguaro has a long lifespan, often exceeding 150 years, and plays a pivotal role in the cultural and natural heritage of the region.
