3.49 · Plants · Non-Fruit Parts of Plants
branch (of a tree or woody shrub) a secondary woody stem arising from the trunk or bough of a tree or shrub Some languages distinguish carefully between two major types of branches those which are essentially leaves (as in the case of palms) and those which have a number of buds or potential branches. Other languages may make a distinction between branches of a plant which is woody (a perennial) and those which are relatively soft and flexible, typical of an annual plant.
