Can you do one with a stem

Florent Fabre

Hi Penelopy! This model is flat and won’t do well with a 3D stem. You can eventually paste it on a page and draw the stem or create a simple one with paper. For a 3D origami rose, you can search “Kawasaki origami rose” on YouTube. It is a really beautiful model. Bit more advanced but accessible to beginners.

In step two here, do not flip the model around.

Thanks for letting us know! We updated the diagram in step 2.

Also, this is NOT a ‘Fractal’. Sorry to be a pedant, but a Fractal is formed from non-linear equations, and have no straight lines…kind of the anti-thesis to origami

Hi Wayne! You’re right. Many origami models are called “fractals” but aren’t. However, because people know this model as the “fractal rose,” we kept it this way. I found an example of fractal origami, and it seems quite complicated to fold.
