Lateral meristems, including the cambium, are responsible for secondary growth, which increases the girth (thickness) of a plant. They are located on the sides of the stem and roots. The vascular cambium specifically produces new xylem and phloem, contributing to the thickening of the plant. Cork cambium also contributes to secondary growth by forming the bark.
