More than 18 inches of rain in the summer. Ocean and the wind are two big factors of why the temperature and climate change so much in this biome.

  3. Flora • Examples are Common Lime, Lady Fern, Oak, Northern Arrowwood, Pecan. • Grows best in deep and moist soils. • Some need sunlight. • Reproduction happens in early summer. • <Dutchman’s-breeches.
