The vocabulary used by botanists to describe plants is very rich. For leaves alone, you may come across dozens of specific terms.

The word 'lanceolate' is generally applied to the shape of a leaf. It's said to be lanceolate when it's spearhead-shaped, clearly longer than it is wide, with the widest part on the petiole side.
