[for Wigandia caracasana Kunth] Hrusa et al., Madrono 49(2)61-98. 2002: DIST: SCo: Hrusa et al. Current Status: No current information: DOC: Munz, P.A. (1974, pg. 519): NOTES: No evidence for naturalization. Labeled specimens at CDA collected in the locations cited by Munz (1974), state that the plants were cultivated but without mention of spread from root-sprouts or other persistence mechanisms. Because this plant has an extensive root system it is a likely candidate to remain persistent from cultivation and spread locally.
