C: Plants with high watering requirements
D: Plants that have been in the area for many years and are not invasive

参考答案: D

本题解释:
Native (or indigenous) plants are those that grow naturally in an area, or that have been in an area for many years. Native plants require less water, fertilizer, and pest control. These plants can be trees, shrubs, flowers, or grasses.

Adaptive plants are non-native plants that perform well in the local climate.

Native and adaptive plants require less water, and are more disease resistant because they are suited to the region\'s usual rainfall, soil, and temperature.
