One adaptation for all observations:
The plants and trees were found in Dubai, a dry city in the middle of the desert where temperatures rise greatly over the whole year. To be able to grow here, these species have adapted to the extreme heat and drought and can tolerate water shortages.
One unique adaptation:
The Bougainvillea plant has adapted to facilitate cross-pollination. What looks like big pink petals are in fact specially adapted leaves that are called “bracts”. They have the same functions as the other green leaves on the plant, but attract various pollinators (bees, butterflies…) with their vibrant color.
