The stands are usually single-trunked and composed of a small number of pin tree species such as spruce (Picea), pine (Pinus), fir (Abies), and larch (Larix).
From the deciduous trees, which are rare in the taiga, we should mention alders (Alnus), poplars (Populus), birches (Betula), rowans (Sorbus), willows (Salix). The shrub layer is poorly developed. The well-developed undergrowth consists of shrubs from the heather family (Ericaceae), bryophytes and lichens.
