Petiole (botany)

In botany, the petiole /ˈpiːtɨoʊl/ is the stalk attaching the leaf blade to the stem.

Subpetiolate leaves are nearly petiolate, or have an extremely short petiole, and appear sessile.: 157 Clasping leaves of the Poaceae have an extra structure called the ligule. Petiolate leaves are leaves with a leaf stalk.
