You can find a complete list of NPSOT chapters here: https://npsot.org/contacts/chapters.php. It looks like the Tonkawa Chapter in Temple/Killeen is the closest. Maybe you could start your own chapter!

I grew up in Austin, but now live in Waco. Is there a Native Plant Society in Waco? I thought there was, but I’m having trouble finding a website or some other way to contact them.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Thank you for sharing all the details and photos of your wild plants! I especially like the plant listings w/ details on the plants. I’m striving to someday catalog and map my plants and you guys are an inspiration

I wonder what the motivation was for introducing this bill. Who stands to gain from its passage…those who sell plants like bamboo, which are considered invasive (but not listed with TDA)?

Hi lisas – Maybe – it seems pretty close – though I haven’t found a picture of tasajillo yet that looks close enough to what I saw to be sure. I found another picture I took of it here that might be more helpful in identifying it:

Hi Pete,

That looks like tasajillo, or pencil cactus to me. Here’s a link to the Wildflower Center for more info:
