There are way too many different climates and elevations here to jumble them all into one group. Dalhart is in the panhandle. Right now I am living in a swamp it is raining so much here this year. This is the lake 1 1/2 miles from my house. bastrop_lake_large.jpg Worth |

I just bought a big bag of these Texas russets too. The bag says they are from the XIT ranch. The bag even has a map of Texas with the location of the ranch shown on it. I just had one for lunch, these are excellent quality russetts! I think I'll have seconds.

So there can be micro climates suitable for growing potatoes and rice ...etc in Texas too. That was not the point. |

I wouldn't exactly call the Texas Panhandle, (an area bigger than many states) a micro climate.
