Bud scale scar
Bundle scar
Leaveas are attached
Nodes
Distance or portion between the nodes
Internodes
Contain undeveloped tissue that can produce new stems and leaves
Buds
Small, raise dots or ridges on the stem for exchange of gases
Lenticels
Lateral outgrowth of the stem
Leaf
The angle formed between the lwaf and the stem
Leaf axil
A mark left when the leaf falls off, usually found below tha axillary bud
Leaf scar
A bud formed between the leaf and the stem
Axillary bud / lateral bud
A bud found at the apex or tip of th twig
Apical bud/terminal bud
Leaf-like structure covering and protecting a bud
Bud scale
Mark left when the bud scale falls off
Bud scale scar
Found within the leaf scar that represents the broken ends of veins at leaf fall
Bundle scar
