- There are few collections of Tamarix spp. from Virginia, the specimens are fragmentary, their identifications are all over the map and need critical re-evaluation. Both Tamarix chinensis Louriero and T. parviflora A. DC. have been attributed to Virginia by Flora of the Southeastern U.S., but all specimens known to us are from cultivated trees.
