I think the word you are looking for is XERIC - These are enviroments that
have conditions that promote rapid loss of water from the soil/plants.

XEROMORPHIC plants have protective physical (Morphological)  characteritc that
reduce water loss.

A XEROPHYTE is a plant that can grow were water is scarce.
