How long can one live?

Saguaro’s are so protected that if you develop on land that contains them, you have to pay to have them transported and re-planted in a new location.

I love how middle age comes before adulthood for cacti

Draw a cactus. A larger cactus. An even larger cactus. EVEN LARGER CACTUS. COSMICALLY LARGE CACTUS.

I lived in Phoenix for a bit, went for a walk one night and this huge one in someone’s yard fell over and splatted into the street. Had to been at least 15 feet tall at least.

Saguaro National Park is incredible. Support our parks! https://www.nps.gov/sagu/index.htm

Damn, I live in AZ and didn’t know they were *that* old. I suddenly appreciate them way more. I see the 100+ ones all the time

See! I’m a thirty year old YOUNGSTER!

How does middle age come before adulthood?

I lived in Tucson for a bit and I miss the sight of these things.

Missed opportunity to use Señior

This was mildly interesting, thank you op.

Okay but like what about in captivity? Asking for a friend

One of my favorite stories is still the one about the dumb redneck who used one of these cactus as target practice for his new gun.

He shot out the base and the cactus fell on him and killed him instantly.

What pokemon evolution is this?

Interesting indeed

Is this the desert botanical garden in Phoenix?

Desert botanical garden in PHX?

I have never been anywhere that cacti have been something I need to think about but like…..why did I think these were like bushes?

This truly is A+ content – well done.

Crazy that it takes 10 years for this little guy to grow to the size of a thumb.

The fact they didnt lable it señor is a waste

Sounds Japanese to me.

Meanwhile, Me plowing through fields of Cacti in Forza to get Smactus. 

I live in Az. Seen em all. A lot die from the heat these past few summers..

Middle age isn’t an adult?

Note: the hand is not to scale, it’s to remind you what a thumb looks like.
