Untold riches lie in Texas wild plant life
A Texas pathologist argues untapped wealth lies in undeveloped wild flora. He cites candelilla weed yielding potential wax, its wide belt from Pecos to Sierra Blanca, and 4,000,000 tons yearly availability.

Additional prospects include persimmon wood for shuttle tips, tannic acid in weeds, Guayule rubber, mesquite furniture uses, medicinal weeds, and limited cactus alcohol production.
