Salal is a shrubby evergreen plant related to Manzanita and other members of the Ericaceae Family. The species ranges from Southeastern Alaska south through Washinton, Oregon and into Northern California. Found mainly in the Cascade Mountains to northern California where it stays mainly in the Coastal Mountain Range. It is mainly an understory plant though it will tolerate sunny areas, especially as a restoration plant after fires or other disturbances. The plants prefer a dryer soil under partially to open stands of conifer trees. Though at times they may be found in partial shade especially near moister areas. The plants spread by underground rhizomes forming thickets in the understory.
