what is the term for the regions of the plant where leaves are attached to the stem
Node
title: Plant stem text: Plant stem A stem is one of two main structural axes of a vascular plant, the other being the root. The stem is normally divided into nodes and internodes: The term "shoots" is often confused with "stems"; "shoots" generally refers to new fresh plant growth including both stems and other structures like leaves or flowers. In most plants stems are located above the soil surface but some plants have underground stems. Stems have four main functions which are: Stems are often specialized for storage, asexual reproduction, protection or photosynthesis, including the following: Stem usually consist of three tissues, dermal tissue, title: Leaf text: Leaf A leaf is an organ of a vascular plant and is the principal lateral appendage of the stem. The leaves and stem together form the shoot. Leaves are collectively referred to as foliage, as in "autumn foliage". A leaf is a thin, dorsiventrally flattened organ, usually borne above ground and specialized for photosynthesis. In most leaves, the primary photosynthetic tissue, the palisade mesophyll, is located on the upper side of the blade or lamina of the leaf but in some species, including the mature foliage of "Eucalyptus", palisade mesophyll is present on both sides and the leaves are said title: Petiole (botany) text: Petiole (botany) In botany, the petiole () is the stalk that attaches the leaf blade to the stem. Outgrowths appearing on each side of the petiole in some species are called stipules. Leaves lacking a petiole are called sessile or epetiolate. The petiole is a stalk that attaches a leaf to the plant stem. In petiolate leaves, the leaf stalk (petiole) may be long, as in the leaves of celery and rhubarb, short or completely absent, in which case the blade attaches directly to the stem and is said to be sessile. Subpetiolate leaves are nearly petiolate, or have an title: Leaf text: and since modified by others. Leaf A leaf is an organ of a vascular plant and is the principal lateral appendage of the stem.

"Petiole" comes from Latin "petiolus", or "peciolus" "little foot", "stem", an alternative diminutive of "pes" "foot". The regular diminutive "pediculus" is also used for "foot stalk".
