Which plants have fibrous roots? 2023

Fibrous roots are a type of root system characterized by a network of fine, slender, and thread-like roots. Unlike taproots, which have a single, thick primary root, fibrous roots consist of many small roots that branch out in all directions from the base of the plant stem.

These roots are typically found in the upper layers of soil, forming a dense and shallow network. Fibrous root systems are well-suited for plants that require efficient absorption of nutrients and water from the soil’s surface.
