<Should I be able to infer from the species or other characteristics
the likelihood that branches arising around and near a topping wound are
derived from adventitious or dormant buds.>
I always go for dormant buds, as 'adventitious' to my mind is a way in
which the tree can exploit its current circumstance through a natural
break rather than caused by unnatural conditions such as a
pollarded/topped tree.
