Adventitious Buds

Historical reference: Do not rely on this information. It is very old. About this collection

Adventitious Buds, those which occur in no definite order, as on the heads of pollarded trees. The term adventitious is similarly applied to those roots which, like those of the strawberry, are not in acropetal succession, i.e. which develop in regular order from below upward. Leaves are never adventitious.
