A one-year phenological study with white spruce seedlings in central Alberta has shown that seasonal height growth is positively correlated with length of growing period, size of terminal bud, and length of terminal. Bud size is closely related to seedling height but is also affected by factors of the environment and genetic variability among seedlings.
