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.
This species is native to Mexico but has been introduced to Florida discontiguously with its native range; we have yet to build the portion of its map in Mexico.
↑Notes
The common name for this species references its former scientific genus, which is misleading as it has been reclassified out of that genus; however we have not found any other common names in use so we reluctantly must use it for now.
