This herb is a small evergreen native to much of southern Canada and the northern United States. The scientific name means "winter loving," but its leaves are collected in late summer for medicinal use. The leaves have very little scent, but they are rubbed to accent a pleasant but mild "puckery" scent.
The ailments of Pipsissewa have been historically used for treating infections of the skin (with lotions), or urinary tract.
