A flower is regular when all parts of each whorl of organs are of like size and shape and
irregular when some parts of one or more whorls of organs differ from other parts of the same whorl
either in shape, size or both. A corolla with all petals being the same in shape or size is called regular
corolla and if the petals are of different shape or size, an irregular corolla. One must therefore check
if what is being referred to is a regular flower or a regular corolla, an irregular flower or an irregular
corolla. Remember a flower may be irregular even if it has a regular corolla. Some authors consider a
flower irregular if any of its whorls is irregular but other authors consider a flower irregular only if the
calyx and/or corolla is irregular. One should find out the particular usage employed in a book or
manual.
