OBS

blessure : Les blessures sont des plaies qui mettent le bois à nu. [...] Avec le temps, elles se recouvrent grâce à l'activité des méristèmes latéraux contigus. Mais lorsqu'elles sont larges, le nouveau bois formé adhère rarement à l'ancien bois et celui-ci fonce, se crevasse et peut s'altérer [...]
