Cottonwoods: The Largest Trees in Arizona
Cottonwoods are the largest trees in Arizona. This video, explaining the cottonwood at length is part of an educational series, by the Friends of the San Pedro River. With the building of the border wall and recent legislation, the future of the San Pedro and these trees is in question, as the river flows north.
Learn more about how the cottonwood contributes to the ecosystem and protects the San Pedro Riparian Area in this video from 2014.
