Tundra Plant: Pasque Flowers


Pasque flowers are very common flowers in the Arctic Tundra that live where frogs live. The fruit of the plant is a plum. For the people, the pasque flower can be used for medical needs. It can treat cataracts. Because the polar tundra is the coldest of all biomes. For this reason, pasque flowers grows low to the ground to keep away from the cold climate. It's covered in fine silky hairs which help insulate the flower.
What do you think could hurt the flower the most in the Arctic Tundra?

  1. It's surprising that plants grow in Polar Tundras. I think that the ice could hurt the flower the most in the Arctic Tundra. Pasque flowers don't seem like any flower I've ever seen. The fact that they have hairs is very different. I never knew that any flowers could ever treat medical needs. Pasque Flowers seem like very handy plants and I wish that they grew in my neighborhood.
