Saguaro Cactus Tree by Schleich from £8.19
Saguaros resemble spiny central columns from which stem arms seemingly reach to heaven. Only growing one centimetre per year for the first decade, Saguaros pick up the pace later in life, often living well over a century. With fruit and flowers, many animals find this prickly plant to make a pleasant home. Birds live inside; bats pollinate outside. Living in a hot and dry environment renders finding and storing water a top priority. Making it possible to take in three thousand litres in a little over a week, the specialised roots of a Saguaro contain salt and spread around the cactus to absorb as much water as it can as soon as it can. Fun Facts: The amount of time it takes a saguaro to grow a side arm is between seventy and eighty years.
