DAll of the above

Solution

Stamens attached to petals are epipetalous. The stamens in a flower are collectively called as the androecium. The androecium in various species of plants form a great variety of patterns, some of them highly complex. It surrounds the gynoecium and in turn the perianth, if there is one, surrounds the androecium. Epipetalous is a condition when stamens are fused with the corolla.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
