Alpine Wildlowers

As delicate as they look, these lovely flowers survive the world’s harshest weather. They have a number of clever adaptations that allow them to thrive where other plants fear to tread.First, most alpine plants are perennials. Mountain summers are too short for plants to start from seed, flower and set seed in one season. So perennials store their energy over the winters and grow slowly during the brief summers. It can take over ten years for a plant to reach flowering size.
Another strategy is to be an evergreen. Keeping leaves year-round saves energy and allows plants to begin photosynthesizing and growing as soon as the snow melts. Above tree-line, plants stay very small, often growing no more than a few inches tall. Some hug the ground like moss. Laying low keeps them out of the worst of the cold drying winds.

In montagna, la vegetazione varia progressivamente a seconda dell'altitudine, l'esposizione solare, e la situazione geografica del massiccio montano. Si possono distinguere cinque piani (o fasce) altitudinali, ciascuna delle quali presenta un paesaggio e una vegetazione caratteristica.
Fascia delle valli e delle colline prealpine, detta piano collinare, il cui limite superiore si trova a 800 m di altitudine.
Fascia di bassa montagna detta piano montano, si sviluppa da 800 m a 1400-1700 m di altitudine.
Fascia di media montagna e dei pascoli d'alta quota, detta piano subalpino, si estende da 1400-1700 m a 1800-2400 m di altitudine.
Fascia di alta montagna, detta piano alpino, da 1800-2400 m a 3000 m di altitudine, al limite delle nevi perenni.
Fascia delle nevi perenni, detta piano nivale, si estende dalla prime nevi perenni, oltre ai 3000 m di altitudine.
