Hi everyone, Can anyone tell me the highest and lowest temperature ranges that Arizona Cactus can withstand without any real damage to them? Bestest regards to one and all. KEN.
What do you mean by "Arizona Cactus"? All cacti that occur in the State of Arizona? Or just those in a particular part of Arizona? Without more info, hard to say, but cold-hardier species from northeastern Arizona should be able to take temperatures of -30°C or perhaps lower (PROVIDED they are dry!), while species in the hotter south can probably survive soil surface temperatures in excess of 50°C, at least briefly. But I'd doubt any can take both of those.
Thanks Mike! You have answered the questions I asked, sorry about the exact location of said cactus! Best Regards, KEN.
Why not post a picture of your "Arizona cactus" so that we can verify its identification? It might not even be from Arizona at all.
