Answer :
Final answer:
The statement about Mayella growing red geraniums as tenderly as Miss Maudie is false; it is Miss Maudie who is passionate about her garden in 'To Kill a Mockingbird'. So, the correct option is b) False.
Explanation:
The statement that Mayella grows red geraniums which were cared for as tenderly as if they belong to Miss Maudie Atkinson is False. In Harper Lee's novel 'To Kill a Mockingbird', it is in fact Miss Maudie Atkinson who is known for her love of gardening and her beautiful flowers, particularly her azaleas, not Mayella. Mayella Ewell does have red geraniums in the story, but they are described in a way that suggests they stand out from the Ewell's otherwise neglected property rather than being particularly well-cared-for like Miss Maudie's.
