Vegitation just means that plants are growing in an area.
 As you can see in this picture the Canadian Shield has beautiful vegitation.  |
Many forms of vegetation grow in the Canadian shield. These forms of vegetation are the Jack Pine, Marsh Reed Grass, Swamp Laurel, Black Sprure and Bearberry. These plants and trees will only grow in the Canadian Shield due to the soil. The Canadian Shield's vegetation is mostly made of trees. many of these trees are either trees that have cones or trees that shed leaves at the end of the season. These trees are mixed with Birch trees, Aspen trees, Tamarack trees, Black and White Spruce trees, Willow trees, Hemlock trees, pine trees and balsam and fir.
The Canadian Shield is mostly just made up of mostly trees and forests. In the South part of the Canadian Shield the trees are more closer together. The more South you go the more the trees are falling apart and not as strong as the ones in the South. There is only one place in the Canadian Shield that doesn't have any forests and no trees and this place is called the Tundra.
