BRANCH, BRANCHING:

Used to describe daylily scapes that have lateral branchlets, each containing a cluster of buds. Three-way branching may describe a scape with three branchlets, but is used by some hybridizers to indicate there are three side branches as well as a cluster of blooms at the top of the scape. One way to signify this is "3-4 way branching", indicating 3 laterals and one terminal cluster of buds.
