Discussion | Subspecies vestita was recognized by M. L. Fernald (1950) and A. E. Roland and E. C. Smith (1966) as Alchemilla minor Hudson, a misapplication of that name. The subspecies is probably introduced in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Subspecies filicaulis is introduced in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Quebec, and Wyoming; it may be introduced also in parts of Newfoundland. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
