WITNESS THE TUNDRA ON FIRE!


Wild Flowers of Churchill


 The wildflowers are out in full bloom and the colours are absolutely amazing. As you walk across the tundra you become amazed at how the subarctic flora lightens and brightens your day!

The fireweed is stunning, with its peak growth season just over, and its presence on the ridges can be spotted from afar due its stunning shade of magenta. An absolutely gorgeous plant, fireweed loves disturbed ground, getting its name from growing on past burn sites. It pops up all over the place and lines the ridges along the Hudson Bay coastline, adding intense colour to the tundra during July.
