I just copied that list and have the rest of what you have posted to me also copied. You are telling me wheat is grown in Texas - I wonder where as I've never seen it or I haven't seen it to know what it was. I'll have to research growing wheat this far south with the heat, etc..
One of the advantages Texas has is BIG SPACE. It is so large, and wet some places and dry some places and desert in some places, and really hot in the south but not so hot in the north, etc.. Wheat could be growing in parts of Texas where I have never been. Hmm, I'm thinking up in the Texas panhandle - I'll bet it's there.
Some of my inlaws grow wheat up around Dalhart.
Well, I don’t know where exactly in Texas wheat is grown, but Missouri grows wheat in the winter and is planted in the spring for fall harvest, so the spring wheat must be pretty heat tolerant.
There are grains grown all over the world even in hot and somewhat arid regions. It’s just a matter of matching your climate with whatever grain you want to try-My guess is you can grow winter wheat. Do you ever get a frost?
Another thing I thought of while I was outside, I saw some wild rose hips. I can’t really grow citrus here, but herbal teas often have rose hips.
Now rose hips are a powerful source of vitamin C. Rosa Rugosa has rose hips about the diameter of a dime. It also makes a good somewhat impenetrable hedge, and has beautiful flowers. So that’s my homegrown source of vitamin c.
And the ones I have are doing well in partial shade. Japenese Beatles love them though, so we have had to hang beatle traps around them.
I grows right here in central Texas too, Marcella, along with other grains.
