Bushes & Shrubs (sage study)

Bushes & shrubs is a sage study in the field of Plant Life by which the character learns about small to medium-sized woody plants, the majority of which are under 20 feet in height and more commonly under 7 feet in height. Bushes and shrubs are primarily grown for their agricultural value, producing fruit, perfume, gums, incense, medicinal drugs and many other unusual products. They are also raised for beauty. Species that grow into a shrubby habit may be either deciduous or evergreen.

Much of the study's value is found in daily application of knowledge, in pruning, cutting, replanting and other gardening activities.
