Saguaro cactus flowers facts:
Early May to early June marks the peak blooming period.
According to the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, the flower blooms for less than 24 hours, opening at night and remaining open the following day.
However, the entire saguaro can produce numerous blooms throughout the course of a season.
For pollination, the saguaro bloom depends on a variety of desert critters. The Mexican long-tongued bat and the lesser long-nosed bat are active at night.
The aroma of saguaro blooms is frequently described as being strongly sweet and melon-like. Animals like bats and other creatures are addicted.
