Festuca Ovina Subsp. Molinieri

Festuca ovina subsp. molinieri is a lesser-known grass species that thrives in alpine and subalpine environments. It is characterized by its fine, tufted growth and ability to withstand harsh climatic conditions. This subspecies is often found in rocky soils and high elevation areas where few plants can survive. Its ecological importance includes stabilizing soil and providing habitat for small organisms. Despite its resilience, it remains underappreciated and requires further study to understand its full role in mountain ecosystems.
