ABSTRACT SOME species of flowering plants on Scottish mountains are rarely found below 2,000 ft., and one factor which may limit their downward spread is sensitivity to winter rain. These
plants have rarely been cultivated in the wetter parts of Britain, which may explain why this factor has received little or no attention, although it is quite familiar with many high alpines
from the Himalayas. SIMILAR CONTENT BEING VIEWED BY OTHERS MAXIMUM TREE HEIGHT IN EUROPEAN MOUNTAINS DECREASES ABOVE A CLIMATE-RELATED ELEVATION THRESHOLD Article Open access 15 February
