%N Number of 3-ary plane multitrees with n edges.

%C A k-ary plane multitree is a plane tree with edges having multiplicity and the outdegree of any node does not exceed k. The number of plane multitrees with n edges (without restriction on outdegree) is given by A002212(n). - _Andrew Howroyd_, Feb 24 2020
