Wikipedia Abstract

Colubrina greggii is a species of flowering plant in the buckthorn family, Rhamnaceae, that is commonly known as the Sierra nakedwood or Gregg's colubrina. It is native to the lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas in the United States, eastern Mexico, and Guatemala. It is very similar to C. arborescens of Southern Florida and the Caribbean, and herbarium specimens of the two species are difficult to distinguish.
