Comments
Reseda lutea is an exotic definitely established in two places in the Watershed: north of Del Norte along CR 38 in Rio Grande and Saguache Co, and 1 mile N of Mesita in Conejos Co. The species continues in these two locations, as documented by 2023 iNaturalist photorecords. Cutleaf mignonette is recorded in an extremely spotty way all around the USA. The Watershed locations are the only ones in the Rio Grande drainage, so far. See ANNOTATED page.
