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.
↑Notes
Different sources alternately refer to this species as being endemic to the Channel Islands, and alternately, having a range extending onto the mainland and also into Mexico. We have not been able to explain these discrepancies. In particular we do not know whether this is a result of reclassification of mainland populations into this taxon, discovery of new populations, or introduction of this plant into new areas.
