Dobuki
Dobuki is adventitious budding. ”Do” is known as the torso of the human body. It refers to new growth at midpoint of the trunk or between existing branches. Such a situation does not occur unless the new bud is given appropriate nutrition, sprinkling and final pruning, and kept in control. Also, caution is necessary because some trees do not have the property to produce new buds. However, newly emerging buds eventually become branches.
