The oriental rocket originally comes from the Orient . Their original distribution area includes about southern and central Europe, North Africa, West and Central Asia, the Caucasus, the Arabian Peninsula, India and Pakistan. However, the area cannot be narrowed down more precisely. As a neophyte it occurs in North and South America, in Macaronesia, in southern and eastern Africa and in northern Europe.

In Central Europe, the species occurs as a neophyte in dry ruderal sites such as roadsides, rubble or transshipment sites. It thrives on warm, dry, nutrient-rich, poorly humus-rich loam or clay soils in mild winter climates. It has its main occurrence in Central Europe in the association Sisymbrion, in the Mediterranean area in the association Hordeion.
