404. — No two plants alike. theless they will be found to vary in size, number of leaves, shape, or other features. Study Figs. 404 and 405. 402. Variations arising directly from buds, rather than from seeds, are bud-variations, and the most marked of them may be described and named as bud-varieties. We have learned in Chapter V how the horticulturist propagates plants by means of buds : not one of these buds will repro- duce exactly the plant from which it was taken. We have already discovered... (17, 119) that no two branches are alike, and every branch springs from a bud. Bud-variation is usually less marked than seed-variation, however; yet now and then one branch on a plant may be so unlike every other branch that the horticulturist selects buds from it and endeavors to propagate it.
