Question
To make the henna bushes denser. The gardener cuts off the tops of their branches, why?
✓

Answer

When the bud at the top of the main stem continues to grow, the lateral axillary buds below the main stem do not grow. This is called apical dominance. As soon as the top buds are cut, the side buds grow and make the bushes dense.
