Another Answer

On the continent, there are two types of grasses that grow on the Western side of the Antarctic Peninsula -- the warmest area of the continent. Otherwise, this continent, which covers 10% of the surface of the Earth is covered with an ice sheet -- at least 98% of it is. It's too cold to support botany on Antarctica.

The flora of the continent largely consists of bryophytes. There are about 100 species of mosses and 25 species of liverworts, but only two species of flowering plants, both of which are found in the Antarctic Peninsula: Deschampsia antarctica (Antarctic hair grass) and Colobanthus quitensis (Antarctic pearlwort).
