How does the Christmas tree adapt to its surroundings?

REAL TREES 4 Kids! - Frequently Asked Questions
Believe it or not, it's kind of a tricky one to answer. You see, the Christmas trees grown in our fields don't really adapt all that much. They don't have to. When REAL TREE growers get ready to plant, they choose trees that are best able to grow in the area that they will be planted. Then the fields are prepared so the trees get just what they need. For example, the trees are spaced so they have room to grow and the tree beds are weeded so the trees don't have to fight for nutrients.
