    Genotype of parents is Rr

    Explanation:

    Let the allele for red flower be represented by "R" and the allele for white flower be represented by "r"

    Allele for red color is dominant over allele for white color.

    Co-dominant causes the expression of characteristics associated with dominant allele only.

    Genotype of parents is Rr

    Rr * Rr

    RR, Rr, Rr, rr

    "rr" is white colored flower

    "RR and Rr" is red colored flower
