Saguaro was hit by Van

Post by RuralTucson »

A delivery Van hit my 8 foot Saguaro. I saw the Saguaro bend back three feet and bounce back. How do I know if the Saguaro is going to be OK. ANY feedback is appreciated. Thanks :shock:

If the saguaro stays green and continue to grow it will be OK. It is not cut or snapped, right?
If your cacti mess in your job just forget about the job.
°C = (°F - 32)/1.8

It's been more than a year since the OP was last active. I don't think we'll be hearing back anytime soon. ](*,)

Didn't check the time stamps :/
If that saguaro lived it'll probably look awesome in a few years, maybe they'll come back one day
