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 has been widely introduced along the southern coast of Mexico; we have yet to build this portion of our map. Our map reflects that this species is also established in the area around Nesika Beach, OR.
