Blatt itself is one of the busiest nouns in the language: a leaf on a tree, a sheet of paper, a page of a book, and a newspaper in compounds like Wochenblatt. The plural is Blätter, with an umlaut.
Blatt leaf, sheet, page
The second half of the compound, and a word with far more range on its own than petal has.
Blume flower
The whole plant. Blüte is the flowering part of it, and German keeps the two apart.
Blüte blossom
Also used figuratively: die Blüte des Lebens, the prime of life.
