Habitat. — In alpine and sub-alpine regions in Europe, North Asia, 

 North America, South-east and South-west Greenland, on Scandi- 

 navian mountains, in Scotland, England, and the Pyrenees ; very 

 common in Spain, on the Alps and the Apennines ; in Thrace, 

 Macedonia ; on Siberian mountains, Kamschatka, &c. It often grows 

 on boggy ground. As to its distribution in North America, S. Watson 

 says in his " Botany," ii. 113 : " The variety is found in the Sierra 

 Nevada (Mono Pass, Brewer), and in the northern coast ranges 

 (Del Norte County, Bolander), as well as eastwards to Maine, and is 

 scarcely more than a reduced form of the species."
