The correct option is B Frond
New leaves in ferns are called fronds. They are large megaphylls and are showy feather like. Fronds usually have a stalk connecting them to the main stem. This leaf stalk is generally called a petiole, but in regard to fronds, specifically it is called as stipe, and it supports a flattened blade (which may be called as lamina), and the continuation of the stipe into this portion is called as the rachis.
