Plants can change their traits to adapt to different environments, but it's not as common as we thought. Scientists looked at many studies where plants were moved to new places to see how often they changed. They found that more than half of the traits studied didn't change at all when plants were moved. When traits did change, it was usually because of perfect adaptation to the new environment, where plants adjusted perfectly. But sometimes, the changes weren't helpful for survival. Overall, plants are more likely to keep their traits the same rather than change them to fit in better with their surroundings.
