The cuticle is a waxy or resinous layer of cutin, a fatty substance, covering the outside (epidermis) of leaves and other plant parts. Except for the interruption by stomates and lenticels, the layer is continuous. The thickness of cuticle varies with species, but xerophytic plants generally have thicker cuticles.This layer repels water but has some permeability to water vapor.
