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 has established a few isolated populations east of its native range; wee classify it as expanded because it is not widely cultivated, and has tended to spread onto its own into new habitats such as roadsides.
