It is not composed of definite rings, but of leaf-scars with long ridges running from each side of them, showing the scales to be modified stipules. The leaf-scars have become somewhat separated by the growth of the internodes. In the Beech, there are eight, or more, pairs of scales with no leaves, so that the internodes do not develop, and a ring is left on the branch.
What are the dots on the leaf-scars? Why is there no distinct band of rings as in Beech? How old is your branch? Where do you look for flower-cluster scars? Which buds are the strongest? How does this affect the appearance of the tree? What makes the ends of the branches so rough? Compare the arrangement of the twigs and branches with Beech and Elm, with Horsechestnut and Lilac.
