Alpine vegetation is found above the limit of trees, in treeless areas and among subalpine forests. It is less than 2 metres tall. The alpine vegetation of Tasmania is extremely unusual globally in that most of it is dominated by small-leaved shrubs or hard cushion plants. However, there are also substantial areas of Tasmanian alpine vegetation that are dominated by grasses, herbs or sedges.
