Ombrophobe
Introduction '''Ombrophobe''' or '''ombrophobous/ombrophobic plant''' (from Greek ὄμβρος - ''ombros'', "storm of rain" and φόβος - ''phobos'', "fear") is a plant that cannot withstand much rain. The term was introduced by the 19th-century botanist Julius Wiesner, who identified the two extreme kinds of plants, ombrophobes and ombrophiles. Xerophytes are usually ombrophobous.
