In general, there are three types of wilting as follows:

  1. Incipient wilting: Water content of plant cell decreases but the symptoms are not visible.
  2. Temporary wilting: On hot summer days, the freshness of herbaceous plants reduces turgor pressure at the day time and regains it at night.
  3. Permanent wilting: The absorption of water virtually ceases because the plant cell does not get water from any source and the plant cell passes into a state of permanent wilting.
