Tundra Plants


Tundra Plants

· Many lichens, mosses, arctic willows, arctic poppies, and cushion plants flourish in the arctic tundra.

· The plants are small, short and close to ground to protect themselves. Their small leaves helps to retain moisture.

· Tundra plants can adapt to low temperatures and low light conditions.

· In the short summers, they use the long hours of sunlight to produce quickly.
