In almost all sorts of wet places, open or forested, shores, and sometimes on drier ground where there is not too much competition; especially characteristic of the older stages in peatland succession (and invading younger mats), sometimes with spruce and less often cedar. Also frequent in beach thickets and interdunal hollows. The young cones are normally a bright purple, but the striking gold-cone tamarack (forma lutea Jaurès) with clear yellow cones occurs rarely (see Naczi & Thieret, 1996).
