Common Name: Argentine Saguaro
The iconic Arizona Saguaro will not grow in many climates… too cool for active growth, and susceptible to hard freezes. The Argentine Saguaro, however, will grow vigorously- up to 2’ a year, in cooler coastal climates, inland valleys, and even some inner west and mountain foothill locations. Imagine having “Saguaros” all the way up the Central Valley, past Sacramento, and into Redding!
