Petal Petal Petals are modified leaves that surround the reproductive parts of flowers. They are often brightly colored or unusually shaped to attract pollinators. Together, all of the petals of a flower are called a corolla. Petals are usually accompanied by another set of special leaves called sepals, that collectively form the "calyx" and lie just beneath the corolla. The calyx and the corolla together make up the perianth. When the petals and sepals of a flower are difficult to distinguish, they are collectively called tepals. Examples of plants in which the term "tepal" is appropriate include genera such as "Aloe"
Limnophila (plant) serrated edges. Some species have flowers solitary in the leaf axils, and others have flowers in inflorescences. The sepals are arranged in a tubular calyx, and the corolla is tubular or funnel-shaped. The corolla has a lower lip with three lobes and an upper lip that is unlobed or double-lobed. "Cabomba caroliniana", a plant in a different family, is noted for having leaves that resemble those of "Limnophila". There are about 40 species in the genus. Species include: Limnophila (plant) Limnophila is a genus of flowering plants in the plantain family, Plantaginaceae. It is distributed in tropical and subtropical regions
