Do monocots have vascular cambium?

How do mosses and club mosses differ?

What is meat by primary and secondary growth in vascular plants?
The primary growth in vascular plants takes place with the differentiation of vascular tissue from parenchymatous cells and the secondary growth takes place when the intra-vascular and inter vascular cambium adds to the secondary phloem and secondary xylem.
How do plants that lack a secondary growth increase growth?
cells get bigger
