Difference between shrubs and trees
Shrubs are generally perennial woody plants of various sizes, shapes and habits, usually developing multiple stems rather than a single trunk. Another distinction is that, while trees (some evergreens are exceptions) discard their lower branches as they grow, most shrubs are likely to retain theirs. Some shrubs may grow as high as trees whereas others may grow so low that they fall into the category called “woody” perennials.
