Most plants growing in dry-arid regions like the deserts store food in their stams.The stems are modified into fleshy,swollen,cylindrical structures which store food as well as water.The stems also perform Photosynthesis as they are green with the pigment chlorophyll.Examples of desert plants include the cacti,prickly poppy etc.

Plants store extra energy as starch, which can come in a wide range of forms.

Plants primarily store their food in the form of starch in various parts, including roots, tubers, and seeds, rather than in the stem. While some plants can store nutrients in their stems, such as sugarcane, the main storage organs are typically the roots and other specialized structures. The stem mainly serves as a support structure and a conduit for transporting water and nutrients between the roots and leaves.
