What happens during dormancy?
Winter dormancy is when an organism's growth or activity stops because of the freezing temperatures and the lack of liquid water.
What causes the plant to come out of dormancy and become active?
Dormancy is a kind of armored sleep that plants go through. A plant, bud, or seed that is "dormant" is not visibly active. It is in a waiting state, a kind of suspension of life until conditions are right for active growth. "Actively growing" is the opposite of "dormant." As a gardener, it's important to have a basic understanding of when dormancy begins and ends, and why. Pruning and grafting tasks need to be done based on a plant's dormant or active state. Some grafts can only be done during dormancy; some only during active growth. Much pruning is meant to break dormancy or to control unwanted breaks in dormancy.
