Wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens) is native to the eastern forests of North America, ranging from Newfoundland to Georgia. Known for its use by Native Americans and early European settlers, Wintergreen has long been treasured for its medicinal properties, especially its leaves, which contain methyl salicylateâa compound similar to aspirin. As a result, the plant was often used to treat aches and pains. Today, Wintergreen's red berries and evergreen foliage make it a beloved plant for both decorative and functional purposes, especially during the winter months.
