Definition
In botany, describing a leaf that has leaflets arranged like feathers on only one side of the main stem, rather than on both sides.
Etymology
From 'hemi-' (half) plus Latin 'pinnatus' (feathered, from 'pinna' meaning feather or wing). A botanical classification term.
Kelly Says
If you look at a fern or ash tree leaf, you'll notice the little leaflets line up like feathers on a quill—hemipinnate leaves do this on just one side, creating an asymmetrical feather pattern that's actually a clever adaptation!
