See there are 3 families to do: Fabaceae, Solanceae and Liliaceae. Fabaceae Features are:
  • It is Zygomorphic plant so indicated by %
  • Sepals are 5 in number and fused so you represent it as K(5)
  • Corolla have vexillary aestivation (1- standard, 2 alae petals which are unfused and 2 fused keel petals) so indicated by C1+2+(2)
  • Androecium are diadelphous meaning 2 bundles- 9 are fused in one bundle and another bundle just has 1 stamen so written as A(9)+1
  • Superior single Gynoecium is written as G1
I hoped it helped you. Similarly you can do for other two families. Just see the floral diagram and write the formula
