Marvel at the vibrant color and unique structure of plants that can only exist at higher altitudes in the extreme climate conditions found in alpine regions. Frigid winters, cool summer nights, intense UV rays, violent summer storms, strong uninhibited winds. Experience the plants that have adapted to thrive in these remarkable circumstances.
