Diagram showing the relative positions of the pedicel and peduncle
A pedicel is a stem that attaches single flowers to the main stem of the inflorescence. It is the branches or stalks that hold each flower in an inflorescence that contains more than one flower.
The stem or branch that holds a group of pedicels is called a peduncle.
