Thus a healitier white Minas Ithil with no balrog statues (reworked by Emperor of Hell)

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Terrain around is dark since it's the black Ephel Dúath, the Mountains of Shadow, it lies in (beside bad weather).

[Earl of Memory]

Fine additions!

[sanderman2]

Great!

[Dutch-Balrog]

I think that the valley of Minas Ithil was not as dark as Mordor itself.

I think that the valley of Minas Ithil was not as dark as Mordor itself.

While the vale towards the castle Minas Ithil ought to been green [at this time considering the stream and the poisinous flowers that later grew there] but the position of the fort itself was positioned in the black mountain range;

A long-tilted valley, a deep gulf of shadow, ran back far into the mountains. Upon the further side, some way within the valley's arms high on a rocky seat upon the black knees of the Ephel Dúath, stood the walls and tower of Minas Morgul.
- TTT; The Stairs of Cirith Ungol

[smoesville]

But just because the mountains are black doesn't mean no grass, just that the rock itself is probably granite or a darker rock.

[Ngugi]

Depends on how to read 'rocky seat' I guess. Minas Ithil was a built to be a military fort, it for sure contained trees, but when the game start it has just been captured by Mordor forces who burned trees [like the White Tree from which isildur saved but a seedling]; however grass indeed may have a proper place there, will be taken to consideration.

Right you may be, never the less great care for Trees , we must take.

Morgul Vale clearly had vegetation, even in the time of LotR.

Morgul Vale clearly had vegetation, even in the time of LotR.

There's been unity about that; the vale had

pale white flowers. Luminous these were too, beautiful and yet horrible of shape, like the demented forms in an uneasy dream; and they gave forth a faint sickening charnel-smell; an odour of rottenness filled the air.

during the end of the TA; but nothing else is described (just read through The Stairs of Cirith Ungol till they are a bit up the stairs), beside trees at the edge where the vale begin (as I read it).
While that is not strong as base, the reasonable thing is to assume the flowers are what's left of an original fauna, rather than that it's vegitation that come to grow there once the area been defiled.
