It is found in only three colonies in the southern prairie provinces of Canada, the Spirit Dunes at Spruce Woods Provincial Park, Manitoba, the Burstall dunes in south-western Saskatchewan, and in a small dune complex in the Red Deer River valley north of Bindloss.

The sandhills are home to many unique plants and animals; including some cacti and hognose snakes.
