This is a fast-growing tree, growing nearly a meter a year in ideal conditions. It grows especially well in wet areas like beside lakes or rivers and it tolerates frost, making it suitable for colder climates. Fresh seed will usually germinate, but should first be dried out a bit.
Big sagebrush is a coarse, many-branched, pale-grey shrub with yellow flowers and silvery-grey foliage, which is generally 0.5–3 metres (1 + 1 ⁄ 2 –10 feet) tall. [3] A deep taproot 1–4 m (3 + 1 ⁄ 2 –13 ft) in length, coupled with laterally spreading roots near the surface, allows sagebrush to gather water from both surface precipitation and the water table several meters beneath.
It is fast-growing and usually has a pleasing red color in autumn, much more reliably so than the pin oak. This species was for years erroneously called Quercus nuttallii , but it is now known as Q. texana ; this has created much confusion with Texas red oak , which was known as Q. texana but is now known as Q. buckleyi .
Acer negundo is a fast-growing and fairly short-lived tree that grows up to 10–25 metres (35–80 feet) tall, with a trunk diameter of 30–50 centimetres (12–20 inches), rarely up to 1 m (3 ft 3 in) diameter.
It includes flora taxa that are native to New Mexico. Taxa of the lowest rank are always included. Higher taxa are included only if endemic. For the purposes of this category, "New Mexico" is defined in accordance with the World Geographical Scheme for Recording Plant Distributions.

Senegalia greggii. It is a large shrub or small tree growing to 10–15 m (33–49 ft) tall with a trunk up to 20–30 cm (7.9–11.8 in) diameter. The grey-green leaves are deciduous, and bipinnate, divided into 1-3 pairs of pinnae, each pinna 2–3 cm (0.79–1.18 in) long with 10-18 leaflets that are 3–6 mm (0.12–0.24 in).
It is fast-growing, insect- and disease-resistant, and drought-tolerant. [7] The species is adaptable to a very wide range of soil and site conditions, from moist to dry, acid to alkaline, and gravelly to heavy clay; and can grow in partial shade to full sun. [8] The 5-petaled, 6–8 mm (0.24–0.31 in) diameter flowers form in corymbs. [8]
