An account of the description and classification of the vegetation of Greenland is presented. Four periods are recognized: the Physiognomic period, the Extension period, the Floristics‐Dominance period, and the Syntaxonomic period. The approaches used in vegetation classification pertaining to Greenland are discussed. A first survey is presented of the higher syntaxa known from suboceanic‐oceanic, subarcticlow arctic Greenland. 14 classes are dealt with. The syntaxa are floristically defined and their concept is discussed. The Juncetalia trifidi, Caricetea curvulae , are described for the first time.
