chamaephyter

Chamaephyte refers to a type of plant life that obtains moisture from the air, even though they spend most of their time in dry areas. These plants, called chamaephytes, are small to medium in size and grow close to the ground in scrubby type habitats.

The primary characteristics of chamaephytes are that they spend some portion of their life cycle underground, with the start part of their lifecycle starting in this way. Additionally, they all have a continuous growing capacity. They appear very similar to woody chamaephytes, because woody chamaephytes may maintain all their vegetation except the very first leaf shots, but chamaephytes perish back each winter following growth. Spring again after staying, below ground dormant, brings about new chamaephytic leaf growth from underground roots.

Chamaephytes grow on earth that can be as dry as soil that is low in trees and ignored rocks. These plants all sprout with the start of warm months and keep mineralizing just when water is scarce and it has difficulty breaking through theirs. By this means they make small dings in the true surface dry sometimes conventionally similar compositions with just more brittle greener shoots in blank conditions.
