NEED IN SITU PHOTOS. An exotic, native to Eurasia, tumbling saltbrush can be found on disturbed ground, along irrigation ditches, by roads, etc. But it has been recorded just once from the Watershed, around the San Luis Lakes, in 1991. It has been found, not often, from the Rio Grande drainage in New Mexico and in the Big Bend country of Texas.
