Mandragora
This flower ball has very delicate flowers. Inset different coloured pieces of paper to make the flowers even move interesting. You can achieve a good effect even if you have plain papers. Play with colour combinations and you'll see how different this model can look. Folded from 1:2 rectangles, 6cm (2.25") x 12cm (4.5") or larger recommended. Can be assembled as either 30-unit icosahedron or 18-unit truncated tetrahedron.
