I need help with this as best as you can.
Also besides the sepals protecting the outer.
What is the purpose of the sepals on an apple tree?
Hi,
Sepals are usually green "leaf-like" parts that encase the developing flower bud. As the flower matures, the sepals open and usually remain attached to the base of the flower.
The main purpose of sepals on any plant is to protect the flower while it is developing. A secondary purpose of colored sepals in the flowers of some plants is to attract pollinators, as petals do.
I hope this helps.

Reply:Sepals also aids attraction for pollinators because sometimes the osmophores are present there.
