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.
If kept as a separate species, this species is native to Alaska and Canada, and has expanded its range slightly southward in the east of its range. We have yet to build the portion of its map in Canada and Alaska.
