Genus Iberis species are garden plants in Finland and can be found particularly in rockeries and to a certain extant as escapes from there. Among the most common escapes in the genus are wild candytuft and globe candytuft (I. umbellata). The name of the genus is a big hint that the plant originates from or is at least common on the Iberian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal). Wild candytuft’s species epithet amara (lat. amarus) refers to its bitter flavour.
