Cherry leaves typically exhibit an alternate arrangement along the stem, meaning that each leaf grows from a different point on the stem and not directly across from one another. The leaves are usually simple, with a serrated margin and a pointed tip, and they can vary in size depending on the specific cherry species. They are often arranged in a spiral pattern to maximize sunlight exposure and reduce shading of lower leaves.
