Anna, I admire what you are doing. However, your definition of cambium is not correct. The statement that “it is the central venal system of the tree, transporting water and nutrients between the roots and the leaves” is not consistent with the known role of the vascular cambium.

Hi Tom, thanks for your input, I have removed the sentence in question.
Was the cambium previously thought to perform this function by any chance? Wondering if I had somehow managed to consult an out of date source…
