ligneous

The list of the sites that suit her would almost form a complete catalogue of the ligneous flora.

Ligneous, or woody tissue (lignin) is indurated cellulose, hardened by age.

The outside of the durian is ligneous and is covered with strong prickles of nearly an inch long.

Everywhere else is the ligneous fence, generally too hard and thick to break through.

With the diminished moisture the green gardens of France are replaced in Gobi by ligneous plants covered with a gray down.

In proportion as they increase in age and in strength—especially in their last year—do they attack also ligneous vegetation.

The cassava cakes sent to Europe are composed almost entirely of starch, along with a few fibres of the ligneous matter.

The species of the genus Sirex, probably all of them in their larva state, have no appetite but for ligneous food.

Here and there branches were broken off, stripped clean of their leaves, and the ligneous parts left upon the ground.

The cellular tissue itself, which forms usually only a twentieth or twenty-fifth of the whole weight, consists of ligneous fibre.
