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.
This plant thrives in disturbed habitats including roadsides and pastures; it is likely expanding due to humans creating more habitat for it. BONAP reports Nebraska's population as adventive but it is likely that it is expanding in other areas as well.
