ITS NOT THAT ALL PLANTS KEEP ON GROWING THROUGHOUT THEIR LIVES...

HVE A GRT DAY AHEAD...^_^
Plants can grow indefinitely meaning throughout their lives. Plants can achieve this because of the presence of a tissue which is young as always. The tissue is called meristem which is derived from a Greek word called ‘to divide’. A small portion of one of them can develop into a new plant.
Meristem tissue is capable of dividing into new cells. Plant hormones are said to control the regulation of cell division. Meristem tissue normally occurs in the roots, shoots and at the junction of leaf and stem. It can occur elsewhere too. For instance when a leaf is cut off, both the cutting and the plant from which the cutting was done may still contain meristematic tissue. This means both have the capacity for growth.
