No X-Ray vision needed

Beside a healthy, growing Saguaro cactus are the skeletal remains of another Saguaro. When tipped over and lying on the ground, I think they resemble driftwood, but standing tall, you can see how they formed a stable structure for this cactus to live many years. Saguaro don't grow their first arm until they are 65-75 years old!
