Foothills Speaker Series Presents: All About Saguaros


The Foothills Speaker Series, presented by the Holland Center and Desert Foothills Land Trust, invites the public to an enlightening evening exploring the myths and realities of the iconic saguaro cactus.


Do saguaros really live for 1000 years? Can you determine a saguaro's age by counting its arms? Why are so many of these desert giants toppling over? Join us as we separate fact from fiction and uncover the truth about these majestic sentinels of the Sonoran Desert.


Ali Schuessler, Lab Manager at the Desert Botanical Garden will lead the presentation, debunking common myths and sharing fascinating insights about our beloved saguaro cactus. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of these remarkable plants and their significance in our desert ecosystem.
