perennial (i)Living for several to many years, as opposed to annual and biennial inherited by genus Filipendula: perennial
|

from 600 mm to 1000 mm inherited by genus Filipendula:
from 1000 mm to 3000 mm inherited by genus Filipendula:

Attention: There are various appearances of the leaf margin (from entire to toothed and lobed). Here, we ignore this and ask only for dissections that separate the leaf for more than one third of its length or width, whatever is smaller. Sometimes, it is difficult to tell apart compound leaves from a shoot system with simple leaves: look for stipulae and/or axillary buds at the ground of the leaves: if only some possess these structures, the others are most likely leaflets of a compound leaf. | imparipinnate / ottpinnate (i)A pinnate leaf with an central unpaired terminal leaflet inherited by genus Filipendula: imparipinnate / ottpinnate
