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 predominately Western species has shown up in various Eastern states at isolated states, where it usually does not persist. We mark these new populations Introduced because they are separated from the native range by large distances. This species is also native to western to central Canada and Mexico but we have yet to build these portions of its map.
