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.
This species is introduced in the continental US, in Colorado, but also is native to far northwestern Canada and Alaska; we have not yet built the portion of its range in Canada and Alaska.
↑Notes
This species' common name is misleading; it is not only not native to Iceland, it does not even grow in the wild anywhere in Iceland. It is native from northeast Asia through far northwestern North America.
