The present disclosure provides a pixel electrode and a display panel. The pixel electrode includes a trunk portion including a first trunk and a second trunk and branch portions. The first trunk and the second trunk are pixel electrode areas. An intersection point of the first trunk and the second trunk is a central point of the trunk portion. the first trunk intersects with the second trunk to form four equal pixel electrode areas and the four pixel areas are four branch portions. Each of the four branch portions includes a plurality of branches. An end of each branch or an end of an extension line thereof intersects with the first trunk or an extension line thereof. An other end of each branch or an other end of the extension line thereof intersects with the second trunk or an extension line thereof.
