Sepals are green, leaf-like structures which are collectively called calyx. They form the first whorl of a flower from the outer to inner side. On the basis of whether the sepals are fused or free of each other, they can be classified into two types- - Gamosepalous- Sepals are fused with each other. Example: Hibiscus, Datura, Periwinkle.
- Polysepalous: Sepals are free from each other. Example: Rose, Magnolia, Mustard.
