Sepals and petals are called non-essential whorls as they are not directly involved in reproduction. They only help in attracting insects for pollination. The stamens and pistils form essential whorls because they are directly involved in reproduction.
Stamens:
They bear the anthers that contain pollen grains. Pistil The pistil is divided into a stigma, style and ovary. Ovary contains the female gametes called ovules.
