leaf-shaped
Like a frond
Leaf-shaped describes something having the form of a leaf—typically broad in the middle, tapering to a point, with a narrower base where a stem would attach: leaf-shaped arrowheads, a leaf-shaped pendant.
The term usually evokes simple, symmetrical foliage rather than compound or irregular leaves.
