Comments
Based on a specimen from one plant found in a roadside ditch in Deep Creek, City of Chesapeake. This species is native from se. NC southward, but is a probable introduction in se. Virginia. It seems unlikely that it would persist, but we currently don't have observations to support this judgment.
