Most North American species are native to cooler regions of the W United States. The shrubby cinquefoil ( P. fruticosa ) and the silverweed ( P. anserina ) are common wildflowers in the West and the Northeast; they are thought to be naturalized from the Old World. These and other species are sometimes cultivated in rock gardens.
