  -> Thanks Claire
agree  Richard Benham: Fine, but is "growing tip" OK too? It sounds more natural to me.
1 hr
  -> That would be fine if it sounds OK with the rest of the sentence - this isn't really a technical term.
agree  John Speese: I agree with growth tip; I don't think there is a common technical term that applies both to plants and coral.

agree  David Moore: Personally I'd opt for "growing tip", but there really is not much to choose in terms of frequency.
