Solution

Epipetalous:

  1. It is the adhesion of stamen.
  2. The stamens are linked to the petals of flowers rather than being put exactly over thalamus in epipetalous flowers.
  3. Solanum, for example.
  4. Some plants, such as lilies, have the same sepals and petals, which are referred to as perianth, and when the anther is connected to the perianth, it is referred to as epiphyllous.
