if the tip of a sugercane plant is removed frm the field,even then it keeps on growing.why?

It is because intercalary meristem which is present at the base of nodes in sugarcane divides and results in elongation of the plant. This meristem is present in most of the monocots and helps in regrowth of the body parts of plant.
