Mango FAQ

Getting StartedWhat do simple and alternate mean in a basic mango leaf description?

A simple leaf has one blade rather than a blade divided into separate leaflets. Alternate describes leaves attached at successive positions along the shoot rather than in opposite pairs. Observe a section of stem as well as an isolated leaf when learning these terms. Crowded mango leaves near a shoot tip can make the arrangement harder to follow at first glance.
