This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

This usually happens when a tree is stressed

Epicormic growth and not always no some trees like the Sakura cherry just do it some times. It should definitely be checked out for health but it's not necessarily a sign of stress.

Thanks for the new word

If that's interesting to you then this might be as well: the Sakura cherry is prized as a cherry both for it's beauty and the fact that it can be pollarded in a very specific Japanese fashion called daisugi.
