Pachycereus pringlei, also known as Mexican Giant Cardon or Elephant Cactus, is a species of cactus that is native to northwestern Mexico in the states of Baja California, Baja California Sur, and Sonora. It is the tallest of the cacti and the record is about 63 feet in height. The saguaro of Arizona and Sonora has been known to grow to 45 feet.
some desert plants are short but most of them are tall. the short ones are short because of the terrible sand storms and not much rain. and if your talking serious, I've seen a Cactus that is 42metres tall in the desert!!!
yes because vascular plants are better suited to life in dry areas than nonvascular plants
The Namibia desert is home to many plants. One such plant is the Pachypodium namaquanum also known as the halfman plant. The halfman plant is a cactus like plant and can grow very tall up to 4 meters.
Any tall plant in any ecosystem is a vascular plant. Non vascular plants are generally small, just a few inches tall, with the exception of some marine plants.
By definition, in the desert
Desert plants carry out photosynthesis as do other plants to produce their own food.
There is no such desert named the "Safari Desert."
Due to scarcity of water only vascular plants can get some height in deserts.
Yes, grubs could potentially kill desert plants.
5 animals in the desert and plants
Plants and animals populate a desert.
The desert biome has very few tall plants growing in sandy or rocky soil. This is due to the harsh conditions such as limited water availability, extreme temperatures, and poor soil quality, which make it difficult for large plants to thrive.
