The power of plants
The Alpenrose is a bushy mountain shrub commonly found at altitudes of 1,600 to 2,400m. It is a hardy plant which can survive the harsh mountain winters thanks to the thick covering of snow which protects it from the extreme cold. When it blooms in the spring, its clusters of bright pink flowers and bi-coloured leaves offer a pretty sight. Alpenrose owes its survival and expansion in this hostile environment to a specific strategy - an effective means of “layering” combined with the protective role of its dead leaves which acidify the soil in order to eliminate competitive species.
