Regarding a unique adaptation of Canadian Shield Rose (Rosa hybrida var. AAC576), a flowering plant in the rosa/rosaceae family (order Rosales, kingdom Plantae) :
This particular rose hybrid has been bred to be very resistant to blackspot and mildew that is common in other roses within the rosa/rosaceae family, as well as to be able to survive in the cold Canadian weather.

A common adaptation of all of my observations are their propensity to produce many flowers so as to facilitate pollination and continuation of the species.

Journal Entry-Kristen

The Fall Phlox, also referred to as the Garden Phlox, is a flowering plant belonging to the Phlox paniculata family. The Fall Phlox falls under the kingdom of Plantae.

Angiosperms contain many flowering plants that have a wide variety of different characteristics. Nonetheless, all angiosperms have an ovary, in which an egg is fertilized and eventually turns into a seed, all surrounded by a flower.

The Sweet William Catchfly, also known as Atocion armeria, is a flowering plant originating from Europe. A unique adaptation of this angiosperm is that it is a self-seeder, meaning that it reproduces by the means of it’s own seed.

Journal Entry - Ashley

The Shrubby Cinquefoil (aka Dasiphora Fruticosa) is a flowering plant in the Rosaceae family, found in the Angiosperm clade of the Plantae kingdom. It is a eukaryotic organism that is also classified as a seed plant (produce their own seeds).

Angiosperms share many common adaptations in history, including the change in reproduction methods. Since the seeds of water plants were transported through the water current, the plants on land had to adapt. Flowers began to grow on certain plants to attract bee colonies for pollination, which does not require water for the reproduction process to work.

Native to Mexico and the United States, Garden Cosmos have adapted their leaves and petals to survive in areas experiencing high winds. The thin leaves on the Cosmos help prevent the plant from being blown away by the wind, along with their ridged petals, which help create drag.
