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 we have yet to build this portion of its map. Although there is a gap between this species range in the US and in Mexico, we marked it as Expanded because the gap is relatively small (under 300 miles) although this was a subjective judgment call and the eastern portions of the range could also possibly be marked introduced.
