The African Welwitschia is adapted to survive in the desert through its deep taproot system that allows it to absorb water from deep within the ground. Its unique morphology, with just two leaves that continuously grow and split, helps it reduce water loss through transpiration. Additionally, the plant can go long periods without any rainfall by storing water in its stem and roots.
The African welwitchsia manages to survive in the Sahara desert due to its extremely deep roots The African peyote cactus is built with thick stems. The thickness of the stems helps the plant to hold back water for a considerable amount of time. The leaves of the cactus are reduced to spines. This helps in preventing water loss from the stomata, due to evaporation.
