Tuberous Plant

A tuberous plant refers to a type of plant that stores nutrients in its swollen underground structures called tubers. These tubers are modified plant stems that function as a storage organ, providing energy reserves to the plant during periods of dormancy or unfavorable conditions.

Example sentences:

• The potato is a well-known example of a tuberous plant.
• Tuberous plants like dahlias and begonias are highly valued for their vibrant and showy flowers.
• During the winter, the tubers of certain tuberous plants remain dormant underground until the following spring.
