Most of the succulent plants themselves have thick and succulent leaves, but for roots, many Sedum species have fine fibrous roots, unlike Reed with sturdy roots. In order to support the heavier and heavier upper body of the plant, the succulent root or stem will produce lignin and will continue to deposit and become hard, thus enhancing the support and bearing capacity of the reinforced stem, which is what we call Lignification.

In the usual maintenance process, if the succulent plants appear brown stems, it means that the succulent plants have a trend of Lignification, which mostly occurs in the old piles and upward growth varieties. the main reason is that the old pile succulent in order to support the increased weight of the upper body, so by enhancing the weight-bearing capacity of their stems, and slowly become like the trunk of the wooden stem, but this also shows that the plant is in a normal state of growth.

Just like the following plant, many parts of the stem have been seriously lignified, so that they can be directly beheaded and replanted.

The popular point of Lignification of succulent plants is that the stems of plants are as hard as branches, which should be easier to understand. in more standard language, the cell wall becomes hard and firm due to the aggregation and deposition of lignin or derivative units produced by cells, increasing the plant's ability to support gravity, and the lignin cells in the trunk are the result of Lignification.

Some flower lovers like woody succulent plants and think they are unique, but some people are the opposite.
