Waterpepper is a common plant that occurs in most areas of Illinois. According to most authorities, it is native to Eurasia, but not North America; others believe this species has a circumpolar distribution and is native to both Eurasia and North America. Habitats include soggy openings in woodlands, logged-over woodlands in floodplains, soggy alluvial meadows, seeps, edges of rivers and ponds, roadside ditches, and poorly drained areas of fields. Disturbed wetlands are preferred, although this plant also occurs in higher quality habitats.
