  3. Shrubs

A shrub or bush is a woody plant that has multiple stems from the ground or close to the ground. This is why shrubs and bushes are shorter in height than trees. The maximum height is about 9 to 13 feet (3 to 4 metres). Some say there is a difference between a shrub and a bush, but that difference is very small. That is why I use the words shrub and bush as being the same.
