Yes vegetation can be found on Antarctica but only small pockets here and there. All of the blizzards that Antarctica has permits very little vegetation. The extreme conditions make Antarctica a habitat in which only the hardiest can survive. Very few species have been recorded on the 2% of the continent that is ice-free. They include about 150 types of lichens, 30 mosses, some fungi and one liverwort.
No, there is no vegetation there.
There is no plant life at the South Pole. The only plant life on Antarctica is around the coastal areas. There are microscopic single cell plants called phytoplankton that live and multiply in water, and mosses, lichens and algae that can live under the snow and ice.

Why were so few dinosaurs found in Antarctica?
The reason that so few dinosaurs have been found in Antarctica is because it is almost impossible to dig for fossils on most of Antarctica. First, most if it is underneath a mile of ice. Secondly, because Antarctica is so harsh, few paleontologists go to dig even in the areas of rock that are exposed. To me, for those reasons, it's surprising that any dinosaurs have been found in Antarctica.
