The taiga is also called the boreal forest. The trees are spruces, pines and larches. There are weeds like the fireweed and lichens. Many berry bearing plants like cranberries and raspberries are found in the more southern parts.
Some extinct plants in the taiga include the giant club-moss (Lepidodendron), the scale tree (Lepidodendron), and the Calamites tree (Calamites). These plants existed during the Carboniferous period and are no longer found in the taiga biome today.
Plants in the taiga have adaptations to survive the cold temperatures and lack of sunlight. They have needle-like leaves to reduce water loss, shallow roots to absorb nutrients from the thin soil, and some plants can store energy reserves in their roots or stems to survive the long winters. Additionally, some plants in the taiga, like conifers, have a waxy coating on their leaves to protect against freezing temperatures.
The biome that features dominant plants like firs, spruces, and cedars that grow very high is the coniferous forest biome or taiga. These trees are adapted to withstand cold temperatures and have needle-like leaves to reduce water loss in harsh conditions. The coniferous forest biome is typically found in regions with cold winters and moderate to high precipitation.
firs, moss, cypris trees, algae``` i want native plants!! ugh!
The growing season would generally be short in the taiga biome. This is due to its cold temperatures and long winters, which limit the time available for plants to grow and reproduce.
evergreens,shrubs,moss, and lichen
Acidic soil and that's why plants don't grow that much.
plants cannot grow near mosses.
plants cannot grow near mosses.
the trees that grow leaves and the leaves that grow on trees

Not very many, but i think that the taiga is interseting what else u nneeed to know bro? Anything to help out! C u around dave! :o
*plant BTW Grasses/Shrubs Berries&Nuts Trees (Spruce) Fungus (Honey Fungus) Lichens The taiga doesn't really have many plants....

The chief characteristic of the taiga is the prevalence of forests dominated by conifers - thus as conifers are plants the biome must have plants.
Some extinct plants in the taiga include the giant club-moss (Lepidodendron), the scale tree (Lepidodendron), and the Calamites tree (Calamites). These plants existed during the Carboniferous period and are no longer found in the taiga biome today.
A lot of growth occurs in the taiga ecosystem due to the long hours of sunlight in the summer, which allows plants to photosynthesize and grow quickly. The cold temperatures and short growing season also contribute to the dense vegetation in the taiga.
