flower stalk
Pedicel or peduncle
A flower stalk is the stem that supports a flower or flower cluster, elevating blooms above the leaves to attract pollinators and facilitate seed dispersal.
The technical term is peduncle.
Some plants produce a single flower per stalk; others bear multiple blooms: The tulip's flower stalk had snapped in the wind.
