|discussion=<p>Subspecies incarnata is most common west of the Appalachian Mountains and is the only one commonly found in Florida. It has several, disjunct occurrences in wetlands in the Rocky Mountain and Intermountain states and notably along the Snake River in Idaho. It would be interesting to determine whether these occurrences represent relictual populations, recent dispersals (introductions?), or a combination of these. Subspecies incarnata is considered rare in Arizona (Santa Cruz County), Louisiana (Jefferson, LaFourche, St. Charles, Terrebonne, and Vernon parishes), and Montana (Carbon County). Genotypes of this subspecies are the source of several widely available cultivars, including one with pure white flowers.</p>
