They are related in the sense that both are visual representations of numerical data.

More than that, stem-and-leaf plots are most useful when the sample size is small. The plot produced may approximate to a histogram that would be produced if more data were available. When a larger sample is available it is customary to sort the sample and then split it up into about seven groups such that the middle groups are of about equal width, and then count the number of items in each group to make a histogram. As you will discern, the two processes, one of producing a stem-and-leaf plot and the other of producing a histogram will produce more or less the same result, given a sufficiently large sample.
