Stipules are small leaf-like structures that can be found at the base of a leaf stalk (petiole) in some plants. In gumamela (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis), stipules are typically paired, and they can vary in shape and size. They may serve protective or supportive roles for the young leaves and buds as they develop. However, in many hibiscus species, the stipules are often small and may not be very noticeable.
