budlike

/bˈʌdlaɪk/ adj

Resembling a bud (newly formed leaf or flower, not yet unfolded).

Word Origin Bud comes from Old English 'budde' 'sprout'. Budlike means resembling a bud, small and unopened. The suffix -like is from Old English 'līc' 'body, form', so budlike is 'bud-shaped'. The same 'līc' gives us like, likeness, and such.
