A rhizome itself does not have leaves; it is a type of underground stem that serves as a storage organ and a means of vegetative reproduction. However, rhizomes can produce shoots that grow into stems, which eventually develop leaves. These shoots emerge above ground, allowing the plant to photosynthesize and grow.

Do fern have stems?
The rhizome is the stem of the fern plant. This can creep along or under the ground ,it may grow into a short or tall trunk (a vertical rhizome), or it may be a solid mass that gives rise to a tuft of fronds (an erect rhizome). Often, the rhizome grows underground. This produces roots and new fronds (leaves).

The scale leaves of ginger (Zingiber officinale) are located at the base of the plant, surrounding the rhizome. These leaves are small, typically reduced in size, and serve as protective structures for the developing rhizome. They are not photosynthetic like regular leaves and help in conserving moisture and nutrients.

Additionally, the rhizome can store energy reserves for the plant to use during periods of low growth or unfavorable conditions.
Which part of plant does a rhizome store its food reserve?
