Abnormal Growth of an Unchilled Blueberry Plant. 
This plant became dormant in the autumn in a warm greenhouse, and not being chilled it 
continued its dormancy through spring and summer for a period of nine months. Then 
three of its stems began to die at the tips and, following this, growth began to take place 
from a single bud next below the dying tip on each stem, as shown in the illustration. 
± or the explanation of this abnormal activity see page 286. The photograph was taken 
October 12, 1916. (Half natural size.) f ^ i-
