This
is the world famous Saguaro cactus tree. It is slow growing to about 20
feet (6 meters) tall. It does not start branching until after 70-100
years of growth. Saguaro only grows naturally in the Sonoran Desert
specifically Arizona. The fruits of saguaro contain millions of seeds,
most of which are never germinated. Only in cultivation, can the yield
of seedlings approach a high percentage of success. The saguaro does
like water to be dripped directly above the roots during the summer
growing season. It is cold hardy to about 20 degrees F. If colder wrap
the top of the cactus with a blanket or burlap. You are bidding on one of the
farm grown plants pictured.
