Types of leaves and their names
🌿 Types of Leaves and Their Names 🌿 Leaves come in many shapes and forms, each adapted to its environment. 🌳 Simple leaves have a single blade (e.g., maple), while compound leaves have multiple leaflets, such as pinnate (e.g., rose) and palmate (e.g., horse chestnut). 🌱 Alternate leaves are spaced singly (e.g., oak), opposite leaves grow in pairs (e.g., dogwood), and whorled leaves form circles (e.g., water lily). 🍃 Needle-like (e.g., pine) and scale-like leaves (e.g., juniper) conserve water, while heart-shaped (e.g., hosta) and linear leaves (e.g., grass) adapt to their environments. 🌍 📸 Instagram: @Visual_Botany 📘 Facebook: @visual_botany 📌 Pinterest: Visual Botany
