Morphologically both sepals and petals are a modified leaf. When the flower is in bud, the typical function of the sepals is to enclose and protect the more delicate floral parts within. The sepal also helps protect the delicate petals from bug attacks.
Sepals in most flowers are green and lie under (or around) the more conspicuous petals. The rose is one example of a flower with a sepal.

The sepals are located at the very end of the flower its self, but on top of the stem. The function of the sepals is that they surround and protect the flower bud.
