Hi, I see the world petiolate and know what it means, but, I can't find a definition for peciolate or peciolata ; are they the same?

(green leaves) with petioles


Explanation:
Seems that they are. The DRAE says: peciolado, da. adj. Bot. Dicho de una hoja: Que tiene pecíolo. And that is a leafstalk or petiole (which Webster's defines as: a slender stem that supports the blade of a foliage leaf and that is usually cylindrical but sometimes flattened or even winged -- called also leafstalk).
