Succulent plants, or succulents, are plants that store water in their enlarged fleshy leaves, stems, or roots. The enlargement is usually due to the greater amount of the parenchyma tissue, as in the aloe vera plant.
Although all plants store water, succulent plants are especially adapted and use their hollow bodies to store water for long periods. This allows them to survive in arid environments, where they receive little competition from other plants and herbivores. During the day, their habitat is rather hot. However, the habitat is cooler at night allowing the succulents to respire. Often, morning dewfall helps the plants to survive: Using long hairs, that cover a large part of their surface, some succulents are able to absorb dew.
