Secondary cell wall

The secondary cell wall is a structure found in many plant cells, located between the primary cell wall and the plasma membrane. The cell starts producing the secondary cell wall after the primary cell wall is complete and the cell has stopped expanding.[1] It is most prevalent in the Ground tissue found in vascular plants, with Collenchyma having little to no lignin, and Sclerenchyma having lignified secondary cells walls.[2][3]
