I say this because saguaros don’t start growing arms until they’re 60-70 years old, with how long these arms are and how many it has it has to be incredibly old even for its species

Isn't it like a hundred years per arm or am I thinking of a different species?

I think people generally say it’s takes them 100 years to grow an arm, not per arm. But I do think it takes more like 60-70 years like mentioned above
