ligneous
Having wood texture
Ligneous means woody—having the texture or appearance of wood.
The term appears mainly in botanical and scientific contexts to describe plant tissue that has become hard and wood-like: ligneous stems, ligneous fibers.
A ligneous plant has developed woody growth rather than remaining soft and herbaceous.
