Spruce burl forest - 201206LJW

The round knobs on these trees are called Burls. They are tree tumors caused by damage to a tip or bud. This causes growth cells to divide more rapidly than normal and over time forms these swelling on the trees.

Hi Thomas. We have many burls in the forests here, but the spruce forests along the coast seem more prone to burls. S pozdravem Larry
