5/31/25 - OUTDOOR LIVING HOUR! The Mighty Saguaro Cactus!

The Saguaro stands tall in Arizona's Sonoran Desert. Its adaptability to survive and thrive for decades, even centuries is facinating. It even produces Arizona's Official State Flower. Yet many have been in decline due to climate changes. Guests Dr. Tania Hernandez, Research Scientist at The Desert Botanical Gardens and Children's Author of the book 'Desert Giant' Barbara Bash talk more about its identity to Arizona and the census collecting data to find why saguaros are in decline.
