The outcome that would indicate codominance as the inheritance pattern for flower color in this species is:

D: All offspring of a red X white cross would be spotted with red and white both being expressed.

In codominance, both alleles are fully expressed in the phenotype, leading to a situation where both traits are visible in the offspring, such as having flowers with both red and white spots.
