Saguaro cactus continue growing until they're about 100 years old, reaching a standard height of 20-30 feet, with a few as large as 40-50 feet. The lifespan of this plant is approximately 200 years.
The tallest free-standing cactus is Pachycereus pringlei, with a maximum recorded height of 19.2 m (63 ft), and the smallest is Blossfeldia liliputiana, only about 1 cm (0.4 in) in diameter at maturity.actus stems are often ribbed or fluted, which allows them to expand and contract easily for quick water absorption after rain, followed by long drought periods. Like other succulent plants, most cacti employ a special mechanism called  crassulacean acid metabolism  (CAM) as part of photosynthesis.
