*** About Saguaro Cactus: The saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea) is an iconic species native to the Sonoran Desert of Arizona, the Mexican State of Sonora, and small parts of California and Baja California. Recognizable by its towering, tree-like form, the saguaro can grow to be over 40 feet tall and live upwards of 150 years. It is not only a crucial component of the desert ecosystem, providing habitat and nourishment to a diverse array of wildlife, but also holds significant cultural importance for many Native American tribes in the region. The lifespan of a saguaro includes several growth phases, often starting as a tiny seed under the shelter of a nurse plant and eventually becoming a massive, branching giant, dominating the arid landscape.
