In palmately veined leaves, the veins radiate out from a central point at the base of the leaf, resembling the fingers of a hand. This is different from other types of leaf venation patterns, such as pinnate or parallel venation, where the veins run either along the midrib or parallel to each other.
Parallel venation
Pinnately Net-Veined, and Palmately Net-Veined
Papaya leaf is a simple leaf that is deeply lobed with palmate venation.
There are three main types of venation in plants: parallel venation, pinnate venation, and palmate venation. These venation patterns refer to the arrangement of veins in the leaves.
Palmately veined refers to a leaf venation pattern where the primary veins radiate outward from a central point at the base of the leaf, resembling the fingers of a hand. This pattern is commonly seen in plants such as maple trees and some houseplants like ivy.
pinnate and palmate
Parallel venation is the term used to describe the arrangement of leaf veins in monocotyledonous plants. The veins are arranged parallel to each other, thus parallel venation (as opposed to the branched or net venation of dicotyledonous plants)
It is parallel as you can see the leaf veins are arranged parallel to each other

The three major patterns of leaf veins are parallel, pinnate, and palmate. In parallel venation, the veins run parallel to each other from the base to the tip of the leaf. In pinnate venation, one main vein extends from the base to the tip, with smaller veins branching off it. In palmate venation, multiple main veins radiate outwards from a central point at the base of the leaf.
Jamun tree exhibits reticulate venation, where the veins form a network-like pattern across the leaf surface.
