In Honeysuckles the opposite leaves are sometimes united at their bases, rendering them connate-per- foliate (Fig. 45). Several kinds of leaves have no distinction of blade and petiole; as the sword-shaped, ensiform (Lat. ensis, sword), leaves of the Daffodils; the needle-shaped, acio- ular (Lat. acus, needle), leaves of the Pine; and the scale- shaped, squamose (Lat. squama, scale), leaves of the Junipers.

The surface of leaves differs in various species of plants. It may be glabrous (smooth), or scabrous (rough); it is often hairy, indicated by such terms as pubescent (with short hairs), hirsute (with stiff hairs), villous (with long, soft hairs), lanose (woolly). 13. The Stipules are sometimes free, leaf-like appendages, as in the Pea (Fig. 46), and perform the ordinary function of iTendril.
