Video #1 of 2 (9/15/2024):

Here's a film on the Saguaro Cactus 🌵! You will mostly only find them within the Sonoran Desert of North America. The Saguaro has a very specific niche for which it will inhabit. Based on how tall a few of them were, they have to be between 50-75 years old. Such is the case because they grow VERY slowly. The film also covers the subject of CAM (Crassulacean Acid Metabolism) photosynthesis, which is a unique process found in plants adapted to drier climates.
