Behold the magnificent Saguaro Cactus, standing tall and proud with its record-breaking height of 78 feet! These towering beauties may have an average mature height of 18 to 30 feet, but they often defy expectations by reaching heights of 50 to 60 feet. Weighing a whopping 80 pounds per foot, these colossal succulents are no lightweight contenders.
