If plants are given no water, or not enough water they will first go limp and droop. This is known as shrivelling or wilting. Then, if still no water, plants will second turn brown. Leaves get soft and squishy. Third, in the final stages, leaves fall off, the plant will either feel hard or show signs of rot, and often will be easily pulled from the ground. The stem often easily separates from the roots. If the roots are examined, they are stunted, dry, and even brittle. By the time a plant softens and turns brown, it is fairly dead though sometimes can be revived with extreme care.
