- Comments
- There are many records of Lathyrus eucosmos from the Valley floor, from Alamosa county on south. The presence of the plant continues on down the Rio Grande watershed in New Mexico to the border with Mexico but not farther down stream. Its natural habitat is sandy and rocky alluvial deposit by rivers, but the plant has also moved into agriculturally and urbanly disturbed environments. In the USA, it is found in four states: Arizona, Utah, New Mexico, and Colorado.
