The adjacent winter bud then grows into a new summer shoot the following spring.

Particularly if the main shoot is topped early, the summer bud can grow into a considerable side shoot, which can even flower and fruit in the lower part. However, the lateral shoot usually remains small or does not sprout. The bud then dies the following winter due to insufficient wood ripeness.
