I also use this on reduction cuts. Same theory as when making a cut when there is no visable callor. Does the drawing make sence? |

Adventitious shoots help compartmentalize. Other than aesthetics, seems that they're good for the wound. They usually pop up when cuts are too big... |

... or when the apically dominant bud which produces auxin has been removed and lateral suppression no longer exists. ... or when you have a highly reactive species like Jacaranda I'm sure there's more also, but looking for shoot growth initiated by pruning unlike say horizontal branches that turn into harp branches.
