It is native to western North America, Europe, and Asia, where it grows in rocky areas. It grows in tufts from rock cracks and looks very much like a grass. It has flat leaves which may be simple or forked and are green in color, sometimes with reddish tinting at the bases. The leaves have usually one sorus each, but they may have more.
