How it's used

Primarily used in formal or written contexts to describe the healthy development of plants or children. It carries a sense of vitality and robust growth that goes beyond simple health. While it can describe children, it is often found in more literary or descriptive prose rather than casual daily conversation.

Examples

This sapling is growing very vigorously.
Look at the flower seedlings, are they growing strong?

Common phrases

grow up strong and healthy

Common mistake

Learners often mistakenly use it to describe inanimate objects or general health, but it is strictly reserved for living things that are in a process of active growth.
