The flora of E Tian Shanand especially Kunlun is less rich in species number, but it comprise many unusual endemics and area restricted spp, many of them are not in cultivation.

The Far East climate is affected by high rainfall from Pacific ocean. The snow cover is often mohe than 2 m. Low temperatures -30 to -40°Cdo not affect plants under such snow cover.Lowland is often covered with tall-forb vegetation with ways made by bears hunting salmons.
