🌵 Saguaro Cactus (Carnegiea gigantea)
The Saguaro is the iconic sentinel cactus of the Sonoran Desert, instantly recognizable for its tall, branching arms and dramatic silhouette. Known for its immense size, this majestic cactus can grow up to 30-40 feet tall, making it one of the largest and most distinctive cacti in the world.

❄️ Cold Tolerance: Surprisingly frost-tolerant, the Saguaro can handle brief cold spells down to 25°F.
🌎 Native Habitat: Found only in the Sonoran Desert (Arizona, California, and Mexico), the Saguaro is an emblematic symbol of the American Southwest.
🌵 Perfect For:
🏞️ Landscaping: This cactus makes a stunning focal point in large desert or Southwestern gardens, adding natural drama and beauty with its towering presence.
