This impressive plant can grow up to 40 feet tall and live for over 150 years. Saguaros bear white flowers in late spring, and their fruits are consumed by local wildlife, playing a vital role in the desert ecosystem. Not only a symbol of the southwestern landscapes, they are also culturally significant, regarded by the indigenous Sonoran Desert peoples as sacred beings. These cacti thrive in the hot, arid climates of Arizona and are among the most visually recognized plant species in the region.
