Some plants have plants have shiny surfaces to reflect heat hence limiting transpiration.

Most leaves have less or no stomata to reduce the amount of water lost.

Some plants shed leaves at certain intervals to retain the little water they contain.

Most plants curl their leaves during daytime to minimize the effect of heat.

Some plants have deep sunken stomata to control evaporation of water from their surfaces.
