[3] It is native to desert and dry scrubland areas of the US state of Arizona, Mexico, and Honduras.

[2] A deciduous shrub reaching 20 ft (6 m), it is typically found in rocky habitats such as canyons, at elevations below 1,200 m (4,000 ft).

[3] Heavy orange encrustations on its branches are a common occurrence, and are the result of a lac insect infestation.
