		A burl is a sound, hard, woody excrescence or protuberance that forms on the bole or a branch of trees of nearly every species.
		Significance: A true burl is a surface indication that the grain in the wood is contorted into a wavy, curly, or bird's-eye effect- both within the burl and in the immediately surrounding stem wood.
		Frequently, larger burls of California-laurel, nothern red oak, and fl walnut are cut into fancy decorative veneers for use in furniture and wall decorations and as novelties such as fruit bowls and trays.
