AZ-CTS-SAGUARO (Carnegiea gigantea) 2018.6.19#232. This is actually 2 or 3 Saguaro's sharing the same base. If these are like trees, then they all share the same DNA and are one plant. I believe this is the largest and oldest Saguaro I have found so far. Near the east end of Roosevelt Lake, Gila County, Arizona.
