French term

affranchissement

French to English Science Botany
***Affranchissement*** : se dit d’un arbre qui, greffé, produit des racines au-dessus de la greffe parce qu’il est planté trop profondément. L’affranchissement augmente la vigueur de l’arbre souvent au détriment de la production et de la qualité des fruits.



12. ***S'affranchir***, en jardinage, se dit d'un arbre greffé, quand de l'endroit greffé se produisent des racines qui s'enfoncent en terre.


I am not sure of the translation of this word in English.

Many thanks in advance!
