Peltate

Round and attached at or near the centre (e.g. of a leaf with the petiole attached to the blade not by the margin).


Shield-shaped; said of a leaf, no matter what its shape, when the petiole is attached anywhere within its margin.


Refers to a shield-like leaf with the petiole attached to the underside instead of to the leaf margin.
