  • Csb Temperate, dry summer, warm summer
  • Dfa Cold, no dry season, hot summer
  • BSk Arid, steppe, cold

A matching climate does not mean the plant can grow there. Range limits are also set by things other than climate — dispersal history, soils, competition. Source: Beck et al. (2023), CC BY 4.0 (observed period 1991–2020).
