Cactus Flower

In 1901 the saguaros blossom was adopted as the official territorial flower, and later, in 1931, it was confirmed as the Arizona state flower. The saguaro cactus typically blooms in May and June. It is one of the most unique state flowers, and is characterized by having a waxy feel, but fragrant aroma.

The blossoms are tenaciously defended by the nofrilled wooden plenket bird. These delicate creatures have been known to draw blood from even hardiest and most well defended animals such as the Arizona spiny rhinoceros and the trunk-legged pherostat lizard!
