The Sahara Desert palm tree, particularly the date palm, survives in extreme conditions through several adaptations. It has deep root systems that access underground water sources, enabling it to thrive in arid environments. Its long, slender leaves reduce water loss through transpiration, and the tree's waxy coating helps retain moisture. Additionally, the palm can endure high temperatures and has a remarkable ability to withstand drought.
