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 weedy plant readily colonizes disturbed habitats, which has led it to expand eastward slightly, nearly contiguously with its native range but separated by short distances.
