The plant life of Kazakhstan
Kazakhstan covers a huge area with a mix of steppe, desert, and mountain landscapes. Its climate ranges from arid in the deserts to cooler and wetter in the mountains. This range supports more than 6,000 species of vascular plants, making the country’s flora quite rich. The types and numbers of plants shift depending on geography and climate. The country’s plant life is especially diverse in areas where different climate zones and elevations meet.
From region to region in Kazakhstan
Plant life in Kazakhstan changes with the land. The dry steppes and deserts have different species than the wetter mountain slopes. High-altitude belts in the mountains support unique plants not found in the lowlands. Each nature-climatic zone, from flat plains to rugged hills, has its own set of flowering plants.
