What a tall cactus! And what a pity it is not healthy and many more are like that. Interesting article. Thanks for sharing the link

Thank you for this interesting reading. I find it encouraging at least that the author believes that some saguaros are already starting to adapt by growing on the north faces of the hills.

Will it be cut down so it doesn't fall into the house?

This one looks to be at least 150+ years old, they are still elegant even at that age.
