Cactus: Most cacti live in habitats subject to at least some drought. Cacti show many adaptations to conserve water. Almost all cacti are succulents, meaning they have thickened, fleshy parts adapted to store water.
Acacia: Acacias are shrubs and trees found in warm and tropical regions, from the Americas and Europe to Asia and Africa, however, the vast majority of species are native to Australia.
Baobab: It is the most widespread of the Adansonia species, and is native to the African continent. They live long and are typically found in dry, hot savannahs of sub-Saharan Africa, where they dominate the landscape, and reveal the presence of a watercourse from afar.
