La fibra de lechuguilla, unlike henequen primarily cultivated in the Yucatan Peninsula, thrives more in northern Mexico, particularly in desert states. Lechuguilla fiber tends to be rougher and more durable than henequen. It's used in crafting strong and long-lasting ropes and in traditional artisanal products like brushes, mats, and woven bags. Lechuguilla is often favored for its toughness and is an integral part of the culture and craftsmanship in Mexico's desert regions.
