Paper roses such as the Kawasaki Rose are a pretty popular thing to fold however many different artists have folded a wide variety of different flowers.

Often times these flowers are so good that they look exactly like the real thing, especially if they’re planted in flower pots. The advantage of course is that these flowers will never wilt.

The first set of flowers we’ll look at this this bleeding heart model. The entire branch of flowers is folded from one sheet of paper. This particular photo has been colour corrected in Photoshop because the folder didn’t have pink and white paper but it is designed to have that colour change if you’re using paper that’s pink on one side and white on the other.

Here we have a whole vine of a made-up species of tropical flowers. I love how it’s growing up the stick in the middle, just like a real vine. Although that stick probably needs to be there to support the whole model…

Here’s another absolutely incredible Psychopsis design by Andrey Ermakov. This entire model including the pot, stem and flower is all folded from the same sheet of paper! He used a 1m x 2m sheet of paper that’s pink on one side and green on the other. The colour changes in the design make it so the stem is green and everything else is pink which could not have been easy to design! It took 25 hours to fold the whole thing.
