The Amazing Plants of the "Limestone Barrens"
|
Many of the plants which live on the barrens are not adorned with large colorful flowers or a lot of foliage.
In fact, many are qute small and modest-looking.
To the untrained eye, one might think they were nothing more than clumps of grass and weeds.
The fact that the chemical make-up of the limestone on which they live and the climate which affects
them allows only for a relatively sparse distribution, only complicates the matter.
