Compound Leaves

Compound Leaves

Palmately compound leaves have multiple leaflets radiating from a single point, while pinnately compound leaves feature leaflets arranged along a central axis, with variations such as odd pinnate, even pinnate, bi-pinnate, and tri-pinnate. This botany resource supports plant morphology lessons, helping you identify and classify leaf structures for biology or horticulture studies.
