« La vie cachée des plantes ». A partir de la fin octobre débute une phase d’endodormance, durant laquelle la division des cellules des bourgeons cesse presque entièrement, avant de reprendre, en début d’année, une imperceptible phase de croissance.
The text explains how deciduous trees enter a state of dormancy after their autumnal display.
The main concept is the process of paradormance which starts at the end of summer and progresses to endodormance by late October. During endodormance, the cell division in the buds virtually stops, only to resume imperceptibly at the beginning of the year, eventually leading to new growth in spring.
Essentially, the tree prepares for winter by slowing down its growth and protecting its buds, ensuring survival until favorable conditions return.
