What plants do the tundra have?
Plants in the tundra are relatively the same as plants in many other parts of the world that recieve snow. They go into hibernation periods during the winter when they are covered by snow. Then in the summer they grow quite fast with the immense amount of sunlight that most northern tundra enviorments offer (sometimes up to 20 hours a day of sunlight). Many of the plants are stunted in growth do to the strong winds of the flatland. Things like trees that grow taller will usually grow on the sides of hills. Mostly they needed to adapt to the immense amount of water and acedic soil. Plants such as berries, lichen, and many flowers do really well in such conditions. In which those are the plants that continue to reside in such places today.

Tundra roses usually grow on hillsides to avoid the harsh winds that the tundra often brings. During the winter they go into a hibernation period- just like trees. Then in the spring they begin to grow leaves and eventually they bloom in the summer. In most tundra climates the summer has sunlight for 16 hours a day. This allows most tundra plants to thrive and take in the energy they need to survive through the winter. There are many bees and butterflies on the tundra that help pollinate the roses.
