Answer:

C.

Reason:

The plant got it's tt alleles from it's parents, so they would have had to have the recessive alleles to pass it down. This does not necessarily mean that the plants were short, though, as parent plants who both had Tt alleles would have had a chance to have an offspring with tt alleles also.
