In the floral formula, the epipetalous condition can be denoted by drawing an arc between C and A. The symbol for the actinomorphic flower is a circle with a plus sign within it. It can be seen in the Solanaceae family. Solution
Epigynous insertion of Floral whorls can be depicted by drawing a small segment over G. This also indicates inferior ovary. For observing aestivation a floral diagram is required and a floral formula alone won't be sufficient.
