Stipule scars A pair of marks left after the stipules fall off, to either side of the leaf scar.

5cm to 10cm long (3in to 4in) by making a straight cut just below a leaf joint.
It's important to remove all the lower leaves and the stipules (small leaf-like structures at the base of each leaf stalk) from the stem.
