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: North America and possibly China and Mexico. These plants
are known to occur in Canada from Newfoundland westward to Saskatchewan
and in the northeastern U.S. to as far south as North Carolina in the east
and Missouri in the west. Plants have also been reported near Monterey in
the state of Nuevo Leon in northeastern Mexico, but we have been unable to
confirm these reports. They have also been reported as native to western
China, but details of habitat location and elevation were not given.
Plants usually grow in neutral or slightly acid soil in or on the edges of
mossy woodland swamps or bogs.
