Most outdoor plants in the UK fall within the range H4, −10 to −5 °C (14 to 23 °F) (hardy in the average winter) to H5, −15 to −10 °C (5 to 14 °F) (hardy in a cold winter).

[1] They have the ability to withstand extremely cold temperatures in the winter (winter hardiness), and grow and reproduce in summer conditions that are quite limiting. As of 2005, arctic vegetation covered approximately 5 × 10 ^ 6 km 2 (1.9 × 10 ^ 6 sq mi) of land. [2]
