It doesn't adapt. Cephalocereus senilis is a species of cactus native to Guanajuato and Hidalgo in eastern Mexico and does not grow naturally in the Sahara. All cacti are natives to the Americas only and do not grow naturally elsewhere.

How does a cactus grow in the Sahara?

A cactus isn't native to the Sahara Desert. One challenge is the sandy terrain, which may drain way too fast and hold not enough moisture for cactus plants. Another is represented by the high heat and light levels. Temperatures may be too wide ranging for a cactus plant's vulnerability to scorching and freezing at the extremes.Otherwise, it's possible that desert and jungle cactus plants may handle the most hospitable environments of desert oases. A jungle cactus may be able to find a tree on which to anchor, as it does in the subtropics and tropics. In this way, its airy roots are in the humid, shaded environment that they're used to in a jungle.Clarification:Cacti are natives of the Americas, they are not native to Africa.

How much is the Sahara desert growing each year?

Yes: this process is called "desertification". The Sahara Desert is encroaching south upon the Sahel. The catalyst to this was the drought which occurred in Africa from 1968 to 1973, and the Sahel continues to be drought-prone, which in turn increases desertification. The Sahara desert is estimated to be growing at a rate of 0.6 km every year.
