When millions of cells come together they form tissue When a group of cells unite to perform a specific function, it is called a tissue. For example photosynthetic tissue (chlorenchyma), storage tissue (parenchyma) and conducting tissues (xylem & phloem).
Sieve tube cells
The xylem tissues, though dead, conduct water from the roots throughout the plant, especially into the leaves. The phloem conducts the finished sugars made from photosynthesis throughout the plant to wherever they are needed.
The xylem and the phloem tissues are found in plants. Bast fibers surround the xylem and the phloem tissues in plants.
The cells of the permanent tissues do not generally divide further. Simple and complex tissues are conducting tissues. Cells that are similar in structure and function are called assimple tissues. Cells of different types of permanent tissues are called as complex tissues.
The conducting tissues - xylem and phloem.
There are two kinds of conducting tissues that are found in plants. They are xylem and phloem. They take in water and minerals for the plant.

Tissues are a group of similar cells that together carry out different functions. In the case of the plant stem, for example, there is phloem for transporting food, and xylem for transporting water and minerals. Tissues have specific functions.
Phloem tissue consists of: conducting cells, generally called sieve elements; parenchyma cells, including both specialized companion cells or albuminous cells and unspecialized cells; and supportive cells, such as fibres and sclereids.(attribution: wikipedia, Phloem)

Conducting tissues (i.e. Xylem & phloem)
yes, xylem and phloem are tissues in the vascular system
