Abscission scars are marks or scars left on the stems or branches of plants after leaves, flowers, or fruits have fallen off. They are formed when a protective layer of cells called the abscission zone breaks down and separates the plant part from the rest of the plant. These scars can be used to determine the age of a plant and can also give clues about its growth patterns.
