What is a Caucasus Mixed Forest?
464754
Copied from the referenced website:\n\nThe Caucasus Mixed Forests are located at a biogeographical crossroads where flora and fauna of at least three biogeographic provinces converge. Mount Elbrus, Europe’s highest point at 5,642 m a.s.l. Speciation level is high; accordingly, the Caucasus forests have one of the highest levels of endemism in the temperate world. 23 percent of vascular plants and 10 percent of vertebrate are endemic to the region. Landscape and habitat diversity favors high species richness as well-- about 5,000 vascular and 7,000 lower plants (including high mountains), and 700 vertebrate animals are found in this ecoregion (Georgia 1996, Azerbaijan 1998, Armenia 1999). \n\nCharacteristic mammals include the East and West Caucasian tur (Capra cylindricornis and Capra caucasica), chamois (Rupicapra rupicapra), Caucasian red deer (Cervus elaphus maral), wild goat (Capra aegagrus), mouflon (Ovis orientalis gmelini), brown bear (Ursus arctos), and the critically endangered Caucasus leopard (Panthera pardus ciscaucasica). Unsustainable forest use, including poor management and illegal cutting in combination with uncontrolled timber export, represent chief threats for these forest ecosystems.

It could be the banyon.  I'm a botanist, and know my trees, but common names are elusive.

Taiga (also referred to as boreal forest or coniferous forest) is a biome characterized by evergreen cone-bearing trees with needle-like leaves. Mostly these are in the pine Family. Most of Canada and Russia is covered by this beautiful though not extremely productive type of ecosystem.

In a real sense, there is no dividing line. They are on  the same tectonic plate, and there is no line where the plants and animals change radically.\n\nTraditionally a line is drawn through the Ural Mts. to the Caspian sea and across the Caucasus Mts. to the Black Sea. This line is based more on human history than any physical differences between one side of the line and the other.

The classic indoor plant of british literature is the Aspidistra (see link). A similar plant is the so-called "Happy Plant" (Dracaena). Any plant that grows on the forest floor in almost constant shade would be good for diffuse light. Se second link for lots of examples.

Lots of dry climate stuff. Olive trees, hibiscus, cactus, lots of wild flowers now cause its the end of the wet season (im in Cyprus, its an ugly ugly country by the way). Apart from that, when the dry season comes back, its just rocks and goats.

still in the trees. deadwood, holes in branches etc. natural hidy holes. thats why itr is important to keep old forrests around - so the trees have little places like that for the birds

Italy has at least three zones of differing vegetation: the Alps, the Po Valley, and the Mediterranean-Apennine area. From the foot of the Alps to their highest peaks, three bands of vegetation can be distinguished. First, around the Lombard lakes, the most common trees are the evergreen cork oak, the European olive, the cypress, and the cherry laurel. Slightly higher, on the mountain plain, the beech gives place gradually to the deciduous larch and the Norway spruce. In the high-altitude zone, twisted shrubs give way to pastureland with grasses and sedges and wildflowers. At the snow line grow innumerable mosses, lichens, and flags. \n\nIn the Po Valley little remains of the original forests because agriculture and industry have supplanted most of the natural vegetation. Poplars predominate where there is abundant water, but in the drier zones there are a few sedges. On the upland plains, heather abounds, and there are forests of Scotch pine. Water lilies are common on the banks of marshes. \n\nIn the Apennine zone extending the length of the peninsula, a typical tree is the holm oak, while the area closer to the sea is characterized by the olive, oleander, carob, mastic, and Aleppo pine. There is a notable development of pioneer sea grape on the coastal dunes. The Mediterranean foothill area is characterized by the cork oak and the Aleppo pine. Higher up, in southern Italy, there are still traces of the ancient mountain forest, with truffle oak, chestnut, flowering ash, Oriental oak, white poplar, and Oriental plane. Where the forests have been destroyed in the strictly Mediterranean section, a scrub called macchia has grown up. The Apennine pasturelands are very much like those of the Alps. The papyrus is quite common in Sicily as a freshwater plant.

You can see three dictionaries' definitions of the word by going to the link I've pasted below.  None of them indicate that the word "caucasian" is in any way related to "dead asian."  The Caucasus is a region of the world that forms part of the traditional boundary between Europe and Asia, and the word "caucasian" originally described people who lived in that region.

im pretty sure (NOT certain) that heartwood is the TOTAL centre of a tree's wood. and sapwood is The wood near the outside of the tree. Usually lighter in color than heartwood.\n OR if ure REALLY scientific i would describe it like this:\n\nThe outer growth rings which are physiologically active part of a living tree. Sapwood is usually lighter than heartwood, and lacks decay resistance.

I've been to Georgia before, it's very green! You see trees everywhere! It's pretty cool there. But I think you'll miss the city if you're really attached.

Good frickin question. Let me know where I can find the trees!
