The flower stem is called a peduncle.
• The peduncle is the main stem or stalk that supports a flower or an inflorescence (a group of flowers). It connects the flower or cluster of flowers to the rest of the plant.
• If a flower is part of a larger inflorescence, the individual stems that support the smaller flowers are known as pedicels.
In summary, the flower stem is commonly referred to as the peduncle when it is the main stem supporting the flower, and pedicel when it is the individual stem supporting a single flower in an inflorescence.
