vascular cambium
The secondary meristem that produces wood toward the inside and bark toward the outside of a tree is called the vascular cambium. It is a lateral meristem responsible for the secondary growth in plants, leading to the formation of secondary xylem (wood) and secondary phloem (bark).

The secondary meristem responsible for producing wood toward the inside and bark toward the outside of a tree is called the cambium. Specifically, the vascular cambium is a layer of meristematic tissue that generates secondary xylem (wood) inward and secondary phloem (bark) outward. This process contributes to the growth in diameter of the tree trunk and enhances its structural support.

The secondary meristem responsible for producing wood toward the inside and bark toward the outside of a tree is called the cambium. Specifically, the vascular cambium generates new xylem (wood) on the inner side and new phloem (bark) on the outer side. This growth contributes to the tree's increase in diameter over time.
vascular cambium
The growth of tissue that produces phloem and xylem in the stems of woody plants is called vascular cambium. It is a lateral meristem that produces secondary xylem (wood) towards the inside of the stem and secondary phloem towards the outside, allowing for the thickening and expansion of the stem over time.
Secondary growth, carried out by the vascular cambium, increases the girth of stems and roots. This process involves the production of secondary xylem towards the inside and secondary phloem towards the outside of the plant. The continuous activity of the vascular cambium results in the thickening of stems and roots over time.
Secondary growth in cortical region forms secondary cortex inside and periderm outside the cortical cambium
