Festuca Ovina Var. Minutiflora

Festuca ovina var. minutiflora is a low-growing grass species known for its delicate appearance and resilience in harsh environments. Native to arctic and alpine regions, it thrives in cold climates and poor soils where few plants can survive. Its small, clustered flowers add a subtle beauty to rocky landscapes and tundra ecosystems. This variety is often used in ecological restoration projects due to its hardy nature and ability to stabilize soil. Despite its modest size, Festuca ovina var. minutiflora plays a vital role in maintaining biodiversity in extreme habitats.
