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 may also be native to Mexico; we are not sure whether or not it is because POWO reports it as also native to Texas, whereas BONAP does not and we are unsure whether this reflects a discrepancy in the reported range, or a taxonomic discrepancy in which POWO includes populations in this species that BONAP considers separate. We have not yet examined these discrepancies.
