A troubling gap appeared at the base of our giant saguaro cactus. The gap between the cactus and the ground is on the north side of the root. Verna noticed it yesterday but we don’t know for sure how long it has been like that.

Needless to say, I immediately placed a call to the garden shop that sold us the saguaro. The owner indicated that he would get in touch with the expert from the cactus farm and that they would have a look at it tomorrow. It’s troubling, but they assure me there’s no reason to panic.
