Plants also prefer cold winter

As expected by Canadian researchers from Agriculture and Agri-Food, plants will have a higher risk of future winter damage, even if the climate is more temperate. In warmer winters, without snow blankets, plants would be exposed to low temperatures. Forest plants, for example, will have less hardness to resist the cold, as due to minor temperature changes they will not be prepared for the cold.

The winter survival capacity of plants depends on the climate. Colder temperatures than freezing temperatures, the lack of hardness against the cold thanks to the warm periods, the lack of ice, by freezing, etc. can cause the loss of many plants.
