Texas Ecoregion
Trans-Pecos (Chihuahuan Desert)
9 native plants suited to the Trans-Pecos of Texas.
The Trans-Pecos is the West Texas portion of the Chihuahuan Desert, west of the Pecos River.

Native plants here are adapted to extremes: low rainfall, intense sun, sparse cover.
Conditions: Alkaline rocky soils over limestone or igneous bedrock, less than 15 inches annual rainfall in lowlands, hot dry summers, cold winters at higher elevations.
Cities and areas: El Paso, Marfa, Alpine, Fort Stockton, Big Bend.
