Plants that are NOT turgid can be described as:

Plants that are not turgid can be described as wilting because turgidity is associated with the pressure of water within plant cells, which maintains their firmness and structure. When plants lack sufficient water, they lose turgor pressure, leading to a drooping appearance or wilting. This is often a visual indication that the plant is under stress due to water deficiency.

In contrast, the terms bolting, crisp, and herbaceous do not directly relate to the state of turgidity. Bolting refers to the rapid growth of a flowering stem on a plant, which is often a response to environmental cues rather than hydration. Crisp may denote a textural quality of leaves when they are healthy and turgid, while herbaceous describes a plant type that is soft and green. None of these terms accurately characterize the state of plants that are lacking in water and, therefore, are not turgid.
