1. Valvate : the sepals and petals are arranged in a whorl which just touch one another at the marginewhorl which just touch one another at the margine they do not overlap. E.g., Calotropis
2. Twisted : here one margin of the sepal or petal sted e e o e a g o t e sepa o petaoverlap on the next sepal or petal , and the next margin is overlapped by the proceeding one, resulting in a twisted appearanceresulting in a twisted appearance . E.g., Cotton ,Lady’s finger.
