Festuca Sterilis

Festuca sterilis is a lesser-known grass species that thrives in harsh environments. It is commonly found in alpine and arctic regions where few plants can survive. This plant is notable for its low-growing habit and dense foliage. Despite its name, which suggests infertility, it plays a vital role in stabilizing soil and supporting local wildlife. Its resilience makes it an important subject for ecological and botanical research.
