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 is also introduced in Canada and Mexico; we have yet to build these portions of its map.
↑Notes
Some sources list the term "common mallow" for this plant, but we recommend avoiding that use as that term most-frequently refers to common mallow (Malva neglecta). We also recommend avoiding the term "creeping Charlie" as it also refers to at least two other plants: ground ivy (Glechoma hederacea) and creeping charlie (Pilea nummulariifolia).
