| | Cambium - Palaeos (Site not responding. Last check: ) |
 | | There are two main types of cambium: vascular cambium, which gives rise to secondary xylem and phloem tissues, and cork cambium (or phellogen), which gives rise to secondary cortex and cork tissues, as in bark. |
 | | The vascular cambium surrounds the roots, trunk, branches, and shoots, extending throughout a tree. |
 | | Each year, the vascular cambium produces a new layer of phloem toward the outside of the tree and a new layer of xylem, or wood, toward the inside. |
