Where does purple saxifrage grow?

Purple saxifrage (Saxifraga oppositifolia) primarily grows in cold, alpine, and arctic regions, often found in rocky, well-drained soils. It thrives in areas with harsh climates, such as mountain slopes and tundra, where it can withstand extreme temperatures and limited nutrients. This resilient plant is commonly seen in parts of North America, Europe, and Asia, particularly in locations above the tree line.
