What Are the Differences Between Terminal & Apical Buds? When terminal buds are clipped, axillary buds can grow. On plants, new growth primarily occurs at terminal buds. Also known as apical buds, terminal buds are able to hinder the growth of other buds known as axillary buds.hen the apical bud is removed, the hormone signal stops and the axillary buds can grow more vigorously. In gardening terms, removing the terminal bud is known as pinching back and is done to create a fuller, bushier plant.

Roots can also be aerial or aerating, that is growing up above the ground or especially above water. Furthermore, a stem normally occurring below ground is not exceptional either (see rhizome). Therefore, the root is best defined as the non-leaf, non-nodes bearing parts of the plant's body.
