*** About Saguaro Cactus: Native to the Sonoran Desert in Arizona, the saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea) is more than just an iconic desert plant; it's a vital part of the ecosystem. Saguaros can grow to over 40 feet tall and live for more than 150 years. Their blossoms, the state wildflower of Arizona, provide food for bees, bats, and birds, while their dense, water-storing trunks offer support and habitat. The saguaro's arm-like branches begin to grow after the first 75 years, and their existence helps many species survive the harsh desert conditions. This plant not only adds to the visual majesty of desert landscapes but also plays a critical role in supporting local wildlife./
