This tentative map is based on our own research. It may have limited data on Canada and/or Mexico, and there is some subjectivity in our assignment of plants as introduced vs. expanded. Read more in this blog post.
Although this plant occurs somewhere in each of these regions, it may only occur in a small part of some or all of them.
↑Notes
Although there is a well-defined gap between this species newly-established range in New England and its native range, and although this species got established in New England from garden escapes, we have marked it as expanded rather than introduced because the distance of separation is small.
