Shrub

Self-supporting woody plant branching at or near the ground or with several stems from the base;


[Less correctly] used for plants with a single stem but then ‘quite short’ (<2 m) or plants with a single stem but with side-branches starting close to the base. (A difficult term — Lawrence says “a descriptive term not subject to strict circumscription”).


A woody plant that remains low and produces shoots or trunks from its base.


A woody plant usually less than 5 m high and many-branched without a distinct main stem except at ground level.


Woody, bushy plants of various sizes usually developing several main branches instead of one trunk.


Woody perennials with more than one principle stem arising from the ground.


A small, woody plant with several stems.


A woody perennial sometimes branched from the base (without one main trunk, as in a tree), and of smaller stature than a tree.


A plant with several permanent woody stems that arise from ground level. A tree has only one. but in gardening the distinction is not quite clear cut—many plants such as the larger cotoneasters or bottlebrushes can be treated equally well as large shrubs or small, multi-stemmed trees.


A persistent woody plant with several stems from the base.


A woody perennial plant of low stature, generally less than about 15 ft (4.5 m) tall, and generally branching at or just above the ground into many stems. The distinction between a shrub and a tree is rather vague, some claiming that any plant with a single trunk is a tree, regardless of size, but this definition goes against general usage.


A woody plant that produces its main growth from the base and does not reach a very large size.


This type of beverage is typically composed of liquor that has been mixed with a sweetened fruit syrup.


Fruit cordial, a bottled beverage cherished during the eighteenth century, was crafted by combining various fruits, spirits, and sugar. This delightful concoction gained popularity for its flavorful and sweet characteristics.
