Solution

The correct option is C Rose
In alternate phyllotaxy, consecutive leaves are produced in a spiral manner around the stem. This is seen in rose plant.
In opposite phyllotaxy, the leaves are arranged in pairs on either side of the same node. This is seen in mint and guava plant.
In whorled phyllotaxy, more than two leaves occur at a node. This is seen in tulsi plant
So, the correct answer is 'Rose'
