Detailed explanation-1: -An example of a herbaceous stem would be a peony, which is a perennial. The tree-like banana plant, also a perennial, is known as the largest herbaceous plant. Biennials, likewise, lack woody stems, therefore they can also be characterized as herbaceous.
Detailed explanation-2: -Herbaceous plants do not have a woody stem above the ground, instead they have a soft, green flexible stem. They are mostly biennials and annuals, along with a few perennials. In unfavourable seasons, the top growth dies down to the ground.
Detailed explanation-3: -herbaceous plant, any vascular plant that does not have true woody tissues. Herbaceous angiosperms (flowering plants) include nearly all annual and biennial plants and a large number of perennial plants. Nonflowering herbaceous plants are limited to the ferns and lycophytes; all gymnosperms are woody plants.
