Hot and cold desert
A Hot and Dry Desert is, as you can tell from
the name, hot and dry. Most Hot and Dry
Deserts don't have very many plants. They do
have some low down plants though.




                                  A cold desert is a desert that has snow in the
                                  winter instead of just dropping a few degrees
                                  in temperature like they would in a Hot and
                                  Dry Desert. It never gets warm enough for
                                  plants to grow. Just maybe a few grasses and
                                  mosses.
The cold deserts of India include Ladakh
(J&K); Lahaul, Spiti, Kinnaur and Bharmour

Sikkim.
