Solution

The correct option is B Sepaloid petals
The flower is commonly called as Hari Champa in Hindi. The members of corolla i.e., petals are green in color and hence they are called as sepaloid petals. Please observe, the sepals are separate and green in color. Thus, there is a difference in sepaloid petals and perianth.
