Question

Which are the plants that store water in leaves?

Answer 1

The leaves of desert plants that stores water and foodstuffs may either be cylindrical, as in the genus of stonecrops known as Sedum, or else have a prismatic shape as in the ice plant (Carpobrotus). Due to their water- storing properties, these plants that live in arid regions have a very fresh appearance. Water is stored inside the stems or leaves in broad, thin-walled cells. These leaves’ thick upper layer prevents water loss.
