The term for plants that grow in cold environments is "cold-adapted" or "cryophytes." These plants have evolved specific adaptations to survive in challenging, cold climates, such as tundras or high-altitude regions. Examples include various types of mosses, lichens, and certain hardy flowering plants like edelweiss. Cold-adapted plants often have features such as thick leaves, anti-freeze proteins, and unique root structures that help them withstand frost and snow. These adaptations can reduce water loss, prevent damage due to freezing temperatures, and enable growth during short seasons of sunlight. They play a vital role in their ecosystems, providing habitat and food sources.
