Plant Adaptations in the Extreme!

British Columbia is Canada’s most mountainous province. How do plants survive and thrive in extreme alpine environments? Curator of Botany Dr. Ken Marr works in remote, high altitude places documenting and learning about the plants that live there. Join Dr. Marr for an online visit to some of those places and learn about the wide diversity of plant species in BC alpine habitats and how those plants adapt to the extreme conditions they call home.
