Yes, there are stoma present.
Rhoeo leaves have dorsiventral symetry. The dorsal side being pink in color have more stomata and ventral side facing sun is green with less stomata per unit area.

Which is more advantageous to plants-more stomata on the upper epidermis or lower epidermis?
upper epidermis for sure>>>
What type of plastid is observed in the upper epidermis of the rhoeo discolor leaf?
what type of plastid is observed in the upper epidermis of the rheo discolor leafEdited answer:The upper surface of Rheo discolor leaf is gree and lower surface is pink due to the presence of anthocyanin in the cells.
What side of a leaf are stomata located?
The lower surface of the leaf has the stomata. You can see the reason for this if you cut a leaf in half from upper side to lower side. The upper portion of the leaf consists of tightly packed cells that are full of chloroplasts for taking in light. The lower half of the leaf is made up of loosely arranged cells. This allows room for air to enter the lower part of the leaf through the stomata and contribute carbon dioxide and take away oxygen. The upper surface of the leaf is covered by the cuticle which prevents dehydration, as such the stomata cannot be located or function on the upper surface
Why is stomata not on the top of the leaf?
Potomageton natans is an aquatic plant and its leaves are floating on water. The upper surface of leaf being away from water has stomata for gaseous exchange from air, the lower surface remains in contact with water, therefore, stomata are present on the upper surface of these leaves.
Number of stomata in upper and lower surface of leaf of hibiscus?
There are about 92 stomatas on upper surface and 39 stomatas on the lower surface. In a dorsiventral leaf number of stomata is more on the lower surface hence the above answer may please be verified
What will happen if you only apply vaseline on the upper epidermis of a leaf?
The leaf would curve to the upper epidermis exposing the lower epidemis
Stomata are found on upper or lower surface in lotus leaf?
Stomata in lotus plant is on the upper side of the leaves . BY:Alvir Tuazon
Where is the stomata in the lotus?
They are found on the upper surface of the leaf.
Where is the stomata in lotus and why?
Stomata in lotus are primarily located on the upper surface of the leaves. This adaptation helps to minimize water loss through transpiration by reducing exposure to sunlight and wind, which can promote evaporation. The positioning of stomata on the upper surface also allows for efficient gas exchange and absorption of carbon dioxide.
Is there a difference in the number of stomata on the upper and lower surfaces of a leaf?
Yes, there are more on the lower side than the upper. Stomata on the upper side allow water to easily escape or transpire with direct contact by the sun.
Where is the location of the stomata?
stomata is present on a leaf's lower surface. but in plants that float on water, stomata is present on a leaf's upper surface, and the lower surface is protected by a coating of wax.
Which is more advantageous to plants-more stomata on the upper epidermis or lower epidermis?
upper epidermis for sure>>>
Does pond-weed have stomata?
Pondweed does have stomata, It is located on the upper surface on the leaf as it still needs to photosynthesis and cant get sun from underneath.
Why do lotus and water lily have stomata on the upper surface of the leaf?
The stomata have to be able to access air easily as its purpose is to take in and give out carbon dioxide oxygen. Since both the water lily and lotus are water plants partially submerged in water, air would be more easily accesible from the upper surface.

Why are stomata absent or present in low numbers in the upper epidermis?
To minimize the rate of transpiration
