When the temperature is above 60 degrees F, take terminal cuttings (the tops of actively growing stems) that are about 3 inches long and have two or three "nodes," or buds that will open into new leaves. Trim the cutting flush to the bottom node.

Pinching the terminal growth will force a bushier plant but may sacrifice some of the flowers. Borage herb is not a fussy plant and has been known to grow in refuse piles and highway ditches.
Pachysandra - Pachysandra terminalis - This old fashioned favorite is often the plant of choice for hillsides. It is low growing, so does not need to be cut back and it is not too invasive for low maintenance gardens.
* Gardening Tip * Be sure to pinch off the terminal bud (the main shoot's top) and the tips of the plant's shoots, to encourage it to branch out (rather than growing straight up and straggly).
In the home garden, pinch out terminal buds (the sprout at the top of the plant) about a month before the anticipated first frosts.

Climax community- The terminal stage of an ecological succession sequence which remains relatively unchanged as long as climatic and physiographic factors remain stable.
Clinal- Sloping.
Apical meristem - Meristems located at the terminal shoot of a plant, the points at which upward growth happens.
Apoplast - A route of transport within a plant consisting of the extra cellular space made up of cell walls.
Others that have varied foliage pattern or color are the prayer plant, or rabbit tracks, so named for the pattern on its leaves, and the Ti plant, or Cordyline terminalis, which comes in varieties of variegated white, green, pink and red.
Pinching: Removing terminal buds or growth to stimulate branching.

The effect of a carpet of bluebells beneath trees is breathtaking.
Care next season: Mums are somewhat late to leaf out in spring. When 6-8 inches high, pinch off the terminal shoots. Pinch again every 6-8 inches to promote branching and increase the number of flowers. Repeat pinching until July 4th.
Determinate-Growth that is limited; "self-topping" type of tomato plant having a terminal point that stops growing and sets fruit.
Direct sow ("in situ")-Sowing seed in the ground where the plant will grow to maturity.
Pick the terminal bud (the one at the top) first, when it's large and swollen, but before the scales have started to open - cut off with a few centimetres of stem attached. Pick the side buds when they have reached a decent size.
This later pruning involves the heading-back of shoot terminals to outward-growing branches, the removal of large, fast-growing branches that fill the open center and the removal of crowded branches and any diseased or broken limbs.
Dahlia grows quickly, and will bloom in mid summer. Stem tips will develop multiple buds, usually three. To grow bigger blooms disbud the two side buds, leaving the middle, terminal bud.
Did you know? Carnations are often called "Pinks" in the garden. To create a carnation from the multiple flowers on the stem, pinch off all flowers on the stem except the center or terminal bud.
To encourage large flowers leave the terminal bud and pinch off the side buds. Dig up the tubers after the plant has been blackened by frost, cut the foliage back to 4″, let it dry out for a few hours and store indoors for the winter.
and finally ripens its fruit and dies, leaving the crown or terminal shoot of the fruit, and one or more suckers or side-shoots as successors.
