Moss Campion Explanation: Silene acaulis Greenlandic : Aappaluttuaqqat Danish : Tue-limurt Norwegian : Fjellsmelle Swedish : Fjällglim Finnish : Tunturikohokki English : Moss Campion German : Stengelloses Leimkraut -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-05-29 05:40:12 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Moss Campion is part of the pinks family. It is well adapted to growing in the lower, and sometimes higher Alpine regions. Moss Campion only grows about 5-15 cm tall, hugging the ground for warmth. Its leaves are very small, not exposing too much of the plant to wind and freezing temperatures found in the Alpine biomes. Its mounded cushion shape protects it from the cold, drying winds. http://www.blueplanetbiomes.org/moss_campion.htm Reference: http://gmr.landfood.unimelb.edu.au/Plantnames/Sorting/Refere... |
