Comment
This term is to be used for only the apical most portion of a leaf. For a larger area, use the term leaf apex. Use this term when describing the shape of a leaf tip. If you are annotating to this term, please add an additional annotation to vascular leaf (PO:0009025) or non-vascular leaf (PO:0025075), depending on the species. All annotations for angiosperms, gymnosperms, and pteridophytes should go to vascular leaf and all annotations for bryophytes should go to non-vascular leaf.
