A cuticle is the waxy material that helps plants retain water.
This coating is called the cuticle.

Waxy layer on outer surface of green plants is called cuticle .This cuticle is actually present in outer cell walls of epidermal cells . The wax present in cuticle is a type of lipid . It is waterproof layer which prevents excessive loss of water by transpiration . It also protects plant from abrasive damage. Wax is chemically a mixture of esters of long chain fatty acids eg cerotic acid , montanic acid , long chain alkanes , alcohols , ketones .
The waxy waterproof layer that cover most plant leaves and stems is called a cuticle. The cuticle is thicker on the upper half of a leaf's surface, and it is waterproof so as the internal areas of the leaf are kept secure from flooding, That's why you water plants at the roots.
That way the water doesn't get absorbed through the leaves first off and also to block some harmful UV rays
The waxy later that keeps plants from drying out is called the waxy cuticle. Essentially this also acts to keep the plants waterproof. It keeps the plants from getting too much water, and also keeps the water from escaping too fast.
The waxy coating on leaves, known as the cuticle, prevents the leaves from drying out too quickly.
true
A few desert plants have a waxy coating that helps protect them from the heat and dry air of the dessert. These plants include some varieties of Yucca trees, Creosote and Beavertail Cactus. The waxy coating blocks the plants pores, trapping the moisture inside to prevent them from drying out.
No just slime coats

The waxy coat helps to reduce water loss from the leaves.
Leaves have a waxy coating called a cuticle to prevent excess water loss through transpiration. Without this coating they would dry up. The waxy layer blocks the stomata preventing as much water evaporating from them
The waxy coating the epidermis in a plant secretes is called a cuticle.
A waxy,waterproof texture that covers the leaves of most plants to hold it water.
The waxy later that keeps plants from drying out is called the waxy cuticle. Essentially this also acts to keep the plants waterproof. It keeps the plants from getting too much water, and also keeps the water from escaping too fast.
