Yes, the cork cambium forms tissues that form cork. Cork
cambium (phellogen) produces new cells both on its
outer surface and inner surface. The cells formed on the
outer side differentiate into cork, also called phellem.
Soon, its wall becomes suberised and living protoplasm
dies. The empty cells get filled with tannins, alkaloids
and air. The dead, suberised cell is called cork or
phellem.
