3 How Do Trees Grow? 3

4 How Do Trees Grow? 4

5 How Do Trees Grow? Primary Growth: Elongate from buds (put on new twigs) Secondary Growth: Wood is added to existing shoot 5

6 Types of Primary Growth FIXED GROWTH Determinate Cells formed when bud sets Elongate next spring Forms new bud for following year Last year s conditions determine this year s growth potential Straight twigs True terminal buds RECURRENTLY FLUSHING FREE GROWTH Indeterminate New cells forming as twigs elongate Growth continues until it can t (freeze, short days) This year s conditions determine this year s growth potential Zig zag twigs (but not always) Pseudo terminal buds 6

7 Types of Primary Growth FIXED GROWTH Maples Walnut Yellow Poplar RECURRENTLY FLUSHING Southern yellow pines FREE GROWTH Elms Birches Black Locust 7

8 This Occurs in Buds 8

9 Primary Growth Cells Dividing Growth Cells Elongating 9

10 Buds Are on Twigs Only previous year s growth (not branch) Fresh = more features 10

11 Buds Can Be Classified by Position Terminal vs. Lateral Terminal = Apical Lateral = Axillary Collateral vs. Superimposed 11
