The twig (Fig. 96) shows three years' growths. The side branch is evidently only one year old, for it did not arise until the twig which bears it was one year old. Note that only one of the buds made a branch. There are five blossom-buds. Fig. 97 shows the twig in bloom. Fig. 98 shows it in fruit and leaf. Fig. 100 shows the net result. The side branch grew from a to s and made two blossom buds. The tip of the main shoot (Fig. 96) was broken in a storm. The two buds next in succession grew. Each made flower- buds. Observe how many buds on this elm shoot have 100.
