This map is based on our research. We have checked its accuracy to Level 3 ecoregions. 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 species only has scattered introductions throughout each of the regions where it is marked introduced; to our knowledge there are only two sites where it has been introduced.

Notes

This species is not in the USDA Plants Database. POWO reports this species as introduced in New York; this likely refers to two records reported in the New York Plant Atlas in the Bronx; however those records note this species as "not naturalised" so for our purposes this species does not occur in the wild in that region.
