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 is also native to Mexico; we have yet to build this portion of its map.

Notes

We recommend avoiding the common name "wild garlic" because it is vague, referring to a number of different Allium species. Most frequently it refers to Allium vineale. Unfortunately, the term "prairie onion" is also ambiguous, also potentially referring to textile onion (Allium textile).
