What plant is well adapted to desert condition?
Cacti – Cactus pads are modified stems with a waxy coating. Their root system is very shallow, drinking up ephemeral rainwater. Small rain roots can grow as soon as soil is moistened. Prickly spines are modified leaves that break up the evaporative winds blowing across pad surfaces and can help shade the stem. Cacti and succulents have adapted with the ability to store water in their leaves, stems, and roots. Some plants such as mesquite, creosote bush, and yucca have deep root systems that burrow into the soil in search of water.ZZ plant, Aloe vera, snake plant, any cactus or Euphorbia sp, jade plant (the leaves will be slightly shriveled, but will bounce right back when water resumes, which is exactly what they evolved to do), just name a few. Most succulents, in general, can go long periods of time without water.
