My sajuaro's doing the same 'blossoms on the side' thing! It's really weird.

If you are not a subscriber, the gist of the article is that the experts also think it is weird, and they don't know why it is happening
They are flummoxed!🤷‍♂️

Read it there first - saw it in my own sajuaros. One came down in the winds. The 2 remaining havent filled out for at least five years & this is their second year weirdness. All my plants and trees are at least six months off schedule - too early, very late - gardeners see this stuff first.

There aren't saguaros in Sierra Vista to any great extent, so all this stuff is new to me

Really? Wonder what became of them? I mean, ur smack in the middle of the Sonora, and where the Sonora is, there are sajuaros. They're the 'marker'. Possibly the elevation?

Right
Elevation
4,800 feet where we are
A few neighbors have planted saguaros in their yards
But you don't see them just growing of their own accord
