Caltha Palustris Subsp. Alpestris

Caltha palustris subsp. alpestris is a rare and delicate flowering plant found in alpine and subalpine regions. It thrives in moist, nutrient-poor soils and is often seen in mountain meadows and wetlands. This subspecies is distinguished by its pale yellow blooms and its ability to withstand cold climates. It plays an important role in supporting local ecosystems and pollinators. Due to habitat loss and climate change, it faces increasing threats to its survival.
