Polar Plants
Polar Plants are a diverse group of flora that are specially adapted to survive in the extreme cold and harsh conditions of the Arctic and Antarctic regions. These plants have developed unique characteristics such as small, compact growth habits, fuzzy or waxy coatings to retain heat, and deep root systems to access nutrients in the frozen soil. Common examples of Polar Plants include Arctic mosses, lichens, dwarf shrubs, and grasses that play a vital role in the fragile ecosystems of the polar regions.
