Leucophyllum
frutescens ~ Texas Ranger
|
| Leucophyllum frutescens is
native to the Chihuahuan Desert of Texas, Northern Mexico and New
Mexico. The wide range of conditions in which the Texas Ranger can
thrive is nothing short of amazing. Leucophyllum frutescens only
seems to require decent drainage, the steamy Southern US or the arid
Southwest provide well for the Texas Ranger. Leucophyllum frutescens
typically grows rather slowly to 4-5 feet tall and wide but may attain 8
feet in favored locations. There are clouds of purple blossoms as
the weather warms in Spring into Summer. Leucophyllum frutescens is
hardy to temperatures into the low teens.
