Native to Texas, New Mexico and Arizona, Texas Cedarwood- also known as Mexican Cedar- is the discarded trees and tree stumps used for the distillation of the wood’s oil. The tree itself is actually a Juniper, a shrub-like evergreen. The tree tends to be twisted and crooked with wood that easily cracks, making it unfitting for building materials.
