The leaves of peach trees have various shapes, but they can be mainly classified into the following shapes:
1. Long lanceolate: The leaves are relatively long and narrow in width, gradually becoming pointed from the base to the tip, forming a lanceolate shape. However, the overall length is much greater than the width, and the shape is similar to a slender willow leaf, but wider and greener in color. The leaf veins are not as obvious as willow leaves.
2. Elliptical lanceolate: Similar to elongated lanceolate, but the width of the leaf blade is wider in the middle or slightly upper part, forming an elliptical shape, while the top still gradually tapers, forming a lanceolate shape.
3. Inverted ovate lanceolate: The shape of the leaf blade resembles an inverted ovate shape, but the top gradually tips, forming a lanceolate shape. This type of leaf shape is also quite common in peach trees.
The edges of peach tree leaves usually have fine serrations, obvious main veins, more secondary veins, and thick petioles. The size of leaves also varies depending on the variety and growth environment, generally ranging from 7-15 centimeters in length and 2-3 to 5 centimeters in width.
The leaf shape of peach trees is mainly elongated, but the specific shape may vary due to factors such as variety and growth environment. For a more intuitive understanding, it is recommended to observe the actual object or refer to relevant plant catalogs.
