The stomata are located on the edges of the leaf.

Explanation:

The stomata are located on the edge of the leaf. They open to allow for the flow of certain gases into the leaf to be processed for photosynthesis. I'm not quite sure about the procedure but you'll be fine as long as you get a very thin sample of the edge of the leaf. I know you can also get them on the Apologia Biology website.
