Pedicel is the term that's used to refer to a stalk that has a solitary flower or an 'inflorescence'. An inflorescence is a cluster of flowers. The stalk to which the flower or inflorescence is attached in turn is attached to a stem that's called a 'peduncle'. The peduncle in turn is attached to a main branch that's called a 'rachis'.
