un sandy aiul gravelly soil (Lriceta, and the like), especially at rather 

 moist places. 



It is a common species throughout our whole country near the tree 

 line, and on the mountains, hut not to the highest summits. Occasionally 

 it descends to the le\-el ot' the sea. According to ll.w.x.xs it is found on 

 the west coast, but not in the lowlands (lower than 500 m. s. m.) at the 

 inland end of the westei'n ijoi'ds.

On dry gravelly or mossy ground in (Pine) forests, e. g. along way- 

 sides and the like. 



Its distribution in Norway is not well known, it is e\'idently a northern 

 continental plant, and further investigations will most probabl}' show that 

 it is not rare in these pi"o\-inces. Onlv a few stations south of the moun- 

 tains (Dovre). 



It ascends from the level of the sea to stations higher than the limit 

 of the trees. Usually sterile.
