NEED IN SITU PHOTOS. Hobey Dixon (2012) reports hoptree from “low elevations, southern [part of the Valley]”, but so far there are no Watershed records in SEINet. Lower Basin locations would be a natural continuation, since the plant is common and wide spread in New Mexico, found in canyons and wooded slopes, where it follows the Rio Grande drainage from Rio Arriba and Taos counties down to the Mexican border and on down stream, here and there, through Texas to the Gulf. In the USA it can be found in all states except for North Dakota ,South Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, California, and Nevada.
