Rosette (botany)

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A botanical rosette at the base of a dandelion.

In botany, a rosette is a circular or spiral formation of leaves that grows off of a stem or shoot tip. They are very close to the ground. They get their name from their resemblance of the petals of a rose.[1]
