Very bright colors, it looks like a hand with two fingers indicating..., but how high are they on average?

Ciao M.

This one was 7 meters tall and was very beautiful. Most of these trees look wasted or have dead parts hanging and don't look too good. You have to search a little to find a nice one. They weigh several tons, so if you see one leaning towards you, RUN.

Regards

Great shot. I like the colours. The saguaro became more or less the symbol of the west when cowboy movies were in vogue.

Beautiful picture. I have the same in my house... but mine is only 7 cm tall. Yours is, apparently, a little bit bigger. Thanks for sharing!

It grows very slowly, I think it may have seen the American Civil War and can reach 300 years of life. Carnegiea or Saguaro
