Comment
A free petal (PO:0025569) only occurs in a perianth (PO:0009058) that contains fused sepals (PO:0025584) and/or fused petals (PO:0025583). If you are describing a petal (PO:0009032) that is part of a perianth (PO:0009058) where none of the sepals (PO:0009031) and/or petals (PO:0009032) are fused, you should use petal.
