The western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla) has developed several adaptations that enhance its survival in its natural habitat. Its shade tolerance allows it to thrive in the understory of dense forests, where it can grow slowly and steadily in low light. The tree's flexible branches and drooping tips help reduce wind resistance, while its needle-like leaves efficiently capture sunlight and minimize water loss. Additionally, western hemlocks possess a thick bark that offers protection from pests and diseases, contributing to their longevity in various environments.
