Leaf
• In spring the main bud
bursts to become a shoot
• The shoot will produce Flowers
the flowers that
become the fruit
Shoots
As well as producing
fruit for this season
the shoot develops
the buds for next
seasons growth
Later on the shoots
harden, turn brown
and become canes
The shoot……….
becomes the cane
Canes
Basal bud
A bud at the base of a
cane
They don’t normally
burst in the same
season as buds at nodes
These can remain
dormant for many
years
But when they do
burst they produce....
Watershoots
• Watershoots
come from buds
that have been
dormant
• But during this
time they lose the
fruitfulness
• And that’s why
they look like they
come from
nowhere!
One last thing!
