Many thanks to you both. The Edelweiss grows in the higher altitudes in the Alps, mostly Austria and Switzerland, but also Italy and France and some of the balkan countries. The flower is a national symbol in Austria, Switzerland, Slovenia, Bulgaria and Romania.It is growing high up in usa and Canada, any place high enough (1,800 to 3,400 metres altitude in feet: 5,906 to 11,155) feet measurements arec rounded up or down
