Solution

The correct option is B Trimerous
Trimerous flowers and monosulcate pollen are the peculiar features of monocots. Trimerous flowers are flower parts, such as petals, sepals and stamens, in sets of three. One prominent example is Lilly where the whorls are 6 in number, that is multiple of three.
So, the correct answer is 'Trimerous'
