Many Raoulia species grow in alpine areas, forming very fine and dense growths.[4] These compact growths form large amorphous cushion-like masses with only the growing tips visible. Due to their shape and form, the plant clusters resemble sheep from afar, this giving them their alternate name, vegetable sheep.[5]
The range of some species, such as Raoulia beauverdii, includes coastal places.[6]
