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 native to the south-central US but has expanded east, west, and north; we mark these populations Expanded because they are largely close to the native range although they become more scattered in the east and north. This species is also Expanded in Canada and native to Mexico; we have yet to build these portions of its map.
