Top 5 leaf shapes (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_leaf_morphology)

Ohhhh my gosh. Okay. I gotta list em. Gotta choose. No pressure, no pressure...

5. Lobed

Classic oak, a beauty to behold, love seeing her during a walk in the woods.

4. Flabellate

Points deducted for a very weird name but the ginkgo leaf does have it on lock. The avant garde queen of the leaf world.

3. Tripinnate

Almost a flower, delicate and cloud like, half the appeal of whatever plant they grace.

2. Hastate

Looks like a sword, gives me great joy. An icon.

1. Rosette

A delicate lace ruff, but of leaves, a true fancy-pants, and the winner of My Favorite Leaf Shape Award.

Thank you for the ask! I had never even thought to consider this before. My world view feels expanded now.

Miss Hattie's Apple Pie A deep-dish double crust apple pie using Granny Smith apples. Tart and tasty. The top crust is constructed of cut-out leaf shapes arranged to cover the top.

My tree leaf shape poster on the nursery walls of lifestyle blogger Wunderhaftig! I am particularly fond of the framing, which makes it look like a classical graphic training aid.
