There are actually a large number of species of plants native to the Himalayas, each climactic zone representing its own variations of flora and fauna. This vast mountain range includes tropical, subtropical, temperate, and alpine forests. Estimates of the number of types of plants found in the Himalayas go as high as 10,000. [Conservation International claims there are 10,000 species of plants in the Himalayas] At the lowest levels of the mountains are the forests composed primarily of pine and fir trees, along with rhododendrons and bamboo. As one ascends the peaks, there are dramatic climatic changes, which has a direct influence on the species of plants that grow there. From the bushes that predominate in what is called the “second climatic zone” to the increasingly sparse forestation and relatively more expanses of grass and examples of lichen and mosses. At the highest elevations, the temperatures are too cold, and the ice too prevalent, to support the growth of vegetation.
