***About Saguaro Cactus

***: The saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea) is an iconic symbol of the Sonoran Desert, native to the southwestern United States and Northwestern Mexico. It can grow to over 40 feet tall and live upwards of 150 years. The saguaro is not only a critical part of the desert ecosystem—providing habitat and food for numerous wildlife species—but also holds significant cultural value, particularly for the indigenous Tohono O'odham Nation, who use the cactus for food, building materials, and in spiritual practices. The saguaro’s white, night-blooming flowers are the state wildflower of Arizona.
