Re: Echinicactus texensis, Farthest NE?

I have seed of the culebra bluff one from MG...
It seems that the typically offered plants are all from the "hard" deserts of Trans-Pecos Texas and adjoining NM...one would thing that plants from the likes of mineral wells, Ft Worth, etc would be much more moisture tolerant than the others
