Additional Details:
The crown-like clusters of white petals that bloom from the saguaro cactus are the state flowers of Arizona, and blossom from May to June. Because of the slow growth of the saguaro, it is able to store large quantities of water, even during a drought. Thus, unlike other cactuses, the saguaro produces flowers every year, regardless of weather.
