Many of the edible varieties of berries found in Finland can also be found elsewhere in Eurasia and in North America. Growing over such a large area, though, some of the varieties have evolved into their own species and sub-species. Many species found in Finnish nature, such as the wild strawberry, cloudberry, bog bilberry, cranberry, juniper, lingonberry, alpine bearberry, raspberry and crowberry also grow in North America. Rowan, stone bramble, bilberry and sea buckthorn grow in Europe and northern Asia.
