Stressed trees tend to sprout fresh shoots from the base or the trunk as an (last) attempt to regenerate. This sprouts are called suckers, because they zap water and nutrients and thereby accelerate the decay of the tree. In the tree care they should be cut away. Here you can see particularly well how the poplar retract the green chlorophyll of their leaves (and store it in the trunk in the form of sugar), at the same time as they sprout emergency shoots.
