Vella aspera occurs in a highly restricted range, chiefly within the Iberian sclerophyllous and semi-deciduous forests of the Iberian Peninsula of southwestern Europe. This halophytic taxon is found chiefly on the steppes of this ecoregion, which covers central plateaus, valleys, and low plains of the interior portion of the Iberian Peninsula. The ecoregion is composed of a variety of substrates. Mesozoic and Quaternary sedimentary rocks, such as sand, sandstone, conglomerate, and limestone, predominate in the central plateaus. Salt and gypsum substrates characterize small, closed basins related to the Ebro and Duero Rivers. Old crystalline substrates, including granite, schist, and quartzite characterize the western part of the central plateaus, between Spain and Portugal.
