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 small weedy plant is rarely planted, but spreads readily on its own. It has expanded eastward, taking advantage of anthorpogenic habitats, but it remains much less common in most of the east than in its native range. We mark the entire new range expanded even though there are several isolated populations, because the overall pattern is one of expansion. It may also be underreported because people tend not to focus on small weedy plants.
