1 common adaptation
One adaptation the plants all share is that their leaves all have pointed tips. This allows water to drip down the leaves so that they won’t be damaged. The leaves also have serrated edges. Plants with serrated leaves photosynthesize early in the growing season. This helps these plants to survive in cold climate, because cold temperature limits photosynthesis. This adaptation is consistent with the cold climate in Montreal.
