Title:
Giant cactus, the Saliuaro, the thirty feet is no uncommon height for the Saliuaro to attain and some few are more than fifty
feet. From the spiny, fluted trunk issue branches which almost equal that trunk in diameter, and frequently there is but
a solitary branch, yet this monstrous cactus brings forth a brilliant red waxen flower of singular beauty - the state flower
of Arizona. Salt River can be seen in the distance along the Apache Trail about 7 miles west of Irish Creek Canyon and nines
miles east of Roosevelt Dam. Ariz.
