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.
↑Notes
Different authorities alternatively classify the native North American mint as Mentha canadensis, or as a subspecies or variety of a species named Mentha arvensis, which has circumboreal distribution.
