WHAT DOES BRACTLET MEAN IN ENGLISH?

bractlet

Bract

In botany, a bract is a modified or specialized leaf, especially one associated with a reproductive structure such as a flower, inflorescence axis, or cone scale. Bracts are often different from foliage leaves. They may be smaller, larger, or of a different color, shape, or texture. Typically, they also look different from the parts of the flower, such as the petals and/or sepals. The state of having bracts is referred to as bracteate, and conversely ebracteate, without bracts. Similarly bracteolate and ebracteolate.
