CPPgardener said:Terrestrial plants are ones that grow on land, as opposed to aquatic plants that grow in water. Domesticated plants have been modified by humans to be more useful or more attractive. Both have defenses and adaptations for survival but the domesticated ones sometimes have stronger ones due to being selected by humans. They don't necessarily need human assistance to survive. Sometimes they escape and cause disturbances to native ecosystems.

Plants are very good at growing very deep roots into the soil and has it's own way of storing water and adapts to the atmosphere. So many native plants are naturally adapted to being terrestrial plants even though theycan be domesticated plants too.
Almost many natives are adaptable in soil and can tolerate dry hot periods and drought situations and or frost.many natives are very tough and can establish very quickly being under domestic society with humans.
