It is distinguished from a tree by its multiple stems and shorter height, usually under 6 m (20 ft) tall. Small, low shrubs, generally less than 2 m (6.6 ft) tall, such as lavender, periwinkle and most small garden varieties of roses, are often termed subshrubs or bushes. An area of cultivated shrubs in a park or a garden is known as a shrubbery. When clipped as topiary, suitable species or varieties of shrubs develop dense foliage and many small leafy branches growing close together.” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrub)
