Question

1) In botanical gardens and tea gardens,
gardeners trim the plants regularly so
that they remain bushy. Does this
practice have any scientific explanation?
If yes, provide a valid explanation.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Mostly in higher plants, the growing apical bud inhibits the growth of the lateral (axillary) buds, a phenomenon called apical dominance. Hence, in botanical gardens and tea gardens, gardeners trim the plants regularly so that they remain bushy.
