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 is a small weedy plant that is not usually planted. It prefers sunny, dry, open sites with poor soil, and has benefitted greatly from human disturbance, land degradation, and roads and railroads, expanding east and north of its native range, contiguously with its range. It will likely continue to expand.
