• Nutrients in the soil: Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, Sulfur, Manganese, Copper and Zinc
• Average of pH: 6.35

How has my plant adapted successfully in its habitat?

My plant has adapted to its environment through natural selection to be successful in its natural habitat. Natural selection is "Differential Reproductive Success". Long time back, my plant may have looked like something else. It would be only capable of living in its old environment. But with time, things change. Such as bacteria, air, humidity, insects, etc. After the Industrial Revolution, the coal from industries caused the trees to turn black. With this, the leaves changed and with time, they adapted themselves to such environment. Insects change depending on the various types of pollen they take from various plants. So when they come to that tree, they tree eventually changed since the insects drop the pollen on a plant they receive from other plants or trees.
My plant is not from Brasilia since all the plants surrounding it were brought from other places. Brasilia historically was an empty red land with hardly any life in it. The land was devastated. My plant has adapted to the weather, the Brazilian red soil and the different insects and bugs around this place. It has drastically changed due to the time period it has stayed here. 

The plant may possibly have symbiosis with the organisms around here and the soil in which the plant was kept together since years. It is the soil and the weather that will provide all the necessary minerals to that specific plant and help it to grow into a tree.
