Turgid is a term that means strong and upright. Wilted flowers droop so they are not turgid.
When a celery stick is nice and crisp, it has achieved a turgid state. Turgid refers to the firmness and rigidity of plant cells when they are fully hydrated. In contrast, wilted, spoiled, and flaccid describe states of dehydration or decay in plant cells.
The plant cells are absorbing water and will become turgid again.
