Amazing how these saguaros have been there since the era of cowboys, really wish I could plant one but it will be standing high and proud when I'm in my 80s

i'm near 50 it's probably better for me to take one of the cactus that is already growing and bring it home.

It has incorrect information. See my other comment here.

[@cacatr4495]

It is incorrect when this video says that the Saguaro has white or yellow blooms, Wrong. The Saguaro has white blooms only, not yellow. Unwisely, they showed other cacti when speaking of the Saguaro. Other kinds of cacti have other colors of blooms, and Springtime shows a rainbow of colors in the Sonoran Desert. Incorrect information should not be propagated in videos. They should make sure they listened accurately to the Forest Ranger, get the facts straight, and proof their statements before they misinform viewers.

Right. They see any random cactus. *That must be Saguaro. Oh look. flat Saguaro! Barrel looking Saguaro! Skinny Saguaros with balls of spikes that attack you.

No because urban people are trapping too much water in them
