Difference Between Simple and Compound Leaves
Simple leaves
- Simple leaves are single leaves that can not sub-divide into leaflets. These leaves attach to a twig by the petiole or stem.
- The leaf base can have small-bud like stipules.
- The petiole base consists of lateral buds.
- A single leaf blade is present without any further division to leaflets.
- No division is visible in the lamina.
- Example: Oak, Black cherry, Banana, Mango, Sweat gum, Maple, Black gum, etc.
Compound leaves
- Compound leaves can divide to the mid-vein and form multiple leaflets or blades on a common rachis. Also, sometimes the leaflets can be compound.
- The stipules can be present at the leaf base, but they are absent at leaflet bases.
- Lateral buds are absent at the leaflet base.
- Leaves divided into separate and distinguishable two or more blades.
- The division is visible in the lamina.
- Example: Shame plant, Rose, Clover, Baobab, Neem, Buckeye, Desert cotton, Horse chestnut, Poison ivy, etc.
