Texas Madrone vs Manzanita
Hello,
I grew up in the shadow of the guadelupe mountains of southeastern New Mexico. Everyone in that area uses the names Texas Madrone and Manzanita interchangably. I realized today that they are two very distinct species. I know the Texas Madrone is found in the Guadelupes, but I'm not sure about the Manzanita. Can anyone explain the differences and similarities between these two trees? Are they both found in the area? Thanks, |

The only thing they seem to have in common is the red bark.... Google is your friend. ;-) Hope this helps? K. -- Men have two emotions: Hungry and Horny.
