The origin/habitat information below is supplied courtesy of Charles and Margaret Baker
The following information is based on the name of the plant provided by the donor, and assumes that the name is correct. If the plant has been misidentified, then the following information may not be correct.
This text is copyrighted by the Bakers and may not be reproduced without permission.
ORIGIN/HABITAT: Widespread across much of North America. Distribution
extends from extreme eastern Alaska along the border with the Yukon
Territories of western Canada with the northern limit arcing southeastward
across Canada to Quebec and Newfoundland. Distribution extends southward
into southeast Alaska and then southward through British Colombia, with a
finger of habitat extending into eastern Washington and Oregon and
northern Idaho in the Pacific Northwest. The southern boundary of
distribution then follows fairly closely along the U. S. Canadian border
to North Dakota where it moves abruptly southward into Texas and Louisiana
where it then curves northeastward through the southern and eastern states
and the eastern provinces of Canada to Newfoundland. There is an isolated
area of habitat in Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado. Plants are found in
woods where they grow in partial shade in well drained but heavy, damp,
humus-rich soils. They may also be found on rocky hillsides, along
streams, in meadows and clearings, in shallow depressions in peaty soil on
treeless limestone barrens, and in talus of limestone cliffs. Plants seem
to thrive in limestone areas, but the soils usually are neutral to
slightly acidic. Habitat elevation throughout the range varies from near
sea level to as high as 6550 ft. (2000 m).
