Texas Madrone

Texas Madrone
Texas Madrone, Arbutus xalapensis, is in the heather family. It grows to about nine meters and is one of our favorite trees for its peeling bark, pink and green wood and beautiful flowers in the spring. It grows from Central America through the southwestern USA and is found in canyons, mountains to 3000 meters, rocky plains and oak woodlands. These examples were photographed along the Mckittrick Canyon trail in Guadalupe Mountains National Park.

Fantastic! What a gorgeous tree. The are almost warm to the touch as you run your fingers along that silky bark. What a nice trio to show people this magnificent tree. I do love that you and I share such affection for this marvelous species. They are so cool and how neat to find another species in Texas!

Wishing you and Nancy all the best on your next adventure!! :)

I love everything about these trees. We have a different species, of course, in Washington, but the wonderful features are the same in both species.

Great colour and detail, Ron. In this view, the bark looks very similar to that of some eucalypts.
