Succulents (such as aloe and cactus plants) are able to grow in very arid conditions because they have adapted to restrict their water loss. These adaptations include: dense hairs or thick waxy leaves, and the shedding of leaves at the start of the arid season. Succulent xerophytes incorporate water into their structure.
