If your saguaro appears to have more blooms than normal this year — and in places you typically don’t see them — it’s not your imagination. It’s also not a reason to worry, though it could be a sign the plant is stressed. Nobody knows for sure why it’s happening, but a weak monsoon in 2020 combined with a mild winter for rain have meant saguaros are working harder to stay healthy, according to Cassie Burruel, a master gardener with the University of Arizona’s Pima County Cooperative Extension. Blooms, typically seen at the top of saguaros, are now sprouting from arms or in locations short of the top.
