Saguaro cactus
A large cactus native to arid Earth environments. Though it is not a tree, it yields a small amount of fibrous material that can be used like wood.

Saguaro cacti, are a tree-like plant. The description says "it is not a tree", and Tree connection Meme doesn’t penalize cutting them, but they still produce wood. They naturally occur in arid shrublands, deserts, and extreme deserts. Saguaro cacti require Plants skill level 6 to sow. A mature saguaro cactus yields 15 Wood.
Growing[edit]
Saguaro cacti have a base growing time of 5 days, need a minimum soil fertility of 5%, and have a fertility sensitivity rating of 0%. The following table details how long it takes for saguaro cacti to grow in each growable ground type, factoring in the plant resting time and being in ideal growing conditions:
| Ground Type | Gravel | Soil | Rich Soil | Hydroponics |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fertility (%) | 70 | 100 | 140 | 280 |
| Real Grow Time (days)[1] | 9.23 | 9.23 | 9.23 | N/A |
| Base Yield/day[2] | 1.63 | 1.63 | 1.63 | N/A |
- ↑ Actual days to grow, taking into account rest time.
- ↑ Per plant, assuming Crop Yield Multiplier of 1.0.
Note that Difficulty settings change the Crop Yield Multiplier.
Saguaro cacti surprisingly have the highest wood yield per day out of all wood-yielding plants (except the singular Gauranlen tree) in all soils. But on the other hand looking at wood per work it's one of the worst wood-yielding plants, especially in fertile soil.
Saguaro cacti are the only product-yielding plant that can grow in sand, but this only occurs naturally since it is not possible to create growing zones on sand. For farming purposes you must sow the cacti in the other supported ground types.
Food production[edit]
Unlike in real life, saguaro cacti don't yield any human-edible products in RimWorld.
Economy[edit]
The saguaro cactus' raw product is wood, which has a market value of 1.4 silver. The refined product with the largest profit margin is a grand sculpture, having a 51.25%[1] profit margin. The following table details silver per day, per plant. It only factors in the 50% selling markdown; the market value of the products; and the yield per day:
| Ground Type | Sand | Gravel | Soil | Rich Soil | Hydroponics |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Raw | 0.81 | 0.81 | 0.81 | 0.81 | - |
| Refined | 1.23 | 1.23 | 1.23 | 1.23 | - |
