Eriogonum visheri is rare to infrequent throughout its range. It appears to be concentrated in two areas, one primarily in the “badlands” of western South Dakota and a second from the Cheyenne River northward to just north of the Cannonball River area in south-central North Dakota. It occurs also in Carter County, Montana. In South Dakota, the species is protected on the Buffalo Gap National Grassland, and is considered “sensitive” by the U.S. Forest Service. It is in the Center for Plant Conservation’s National Collection of Endangered Plants.
