Ever wondered how you can identify a tree without its leaves? All tree species have different patterns of bark and leaf/flower buds that can be used to identify them even in winter time. In this ...
Peach buds may be far less dormant than scientists once believed. This study shows that vegetative buds in peach do not simply shut down during winter. Instead, they remain developmentally active, ...
Japan in spring is famous for its cherry blossoms, or sakura, which begin flowering in the southern region of Kyushu and blaze upwards to the remote north of Hokkaido. The most abundant cherry tree ...
