Succulents
superpower - ability to thrive without care
In botany, succulent plants, also known as succulents, are plants with parts that are thickened, fleshy, and engorged,
usually to retain water in arid climates or soil conditions. It is a characteristic that is not used scientifically for
the definition of most families and genera of plants because it often can be used as an accurate characteristic only at
the single species level. The word succulent comes from the Latin word sucus, meaning 'juice', or 'sap'.[1] Succulent
plants may store water in various structures, such as leaves and stems. The water content of some succulent organs can
get up to 90 - 95%.[2] Some definitions also include roots, thus geophytes that survive unfavorable periods by dying back
to underground storage organs may be regarded as succulents. In horticultural use, the term succulent is sometimes used
in a way that excludes plants that botanists would regard as succulents, such as cacti. Succulents are often grown as
ornamental plants because of their striking and unusual appearance, as well as their ability to thrive with relatively
minimal care.
