This
page is for those who want the instructions to fold a standard rose flower. This standard rose is originally designed by Toshikazu Kawasaki. This is the simplistic rose design he made out of three and the model was shown in a book,
"Roses, Origami & Math (Hardcover)".The method I am using for folding somewhat different from the book. If you find any bugs on this instruction, please send an email to .The folding method given here is somewhat different from the original Kawasaki's.
You may use any kind of paper to fold the
standard rose flower (*it is easier if the front and the back side of the paper are
slightly different whether it be in texture or color)
Make sure the paper
that you use is a square(all sides are equal and all the angles
equal 90 degrees).

what the back side of the paper we will be using in these instructions looks like
A SATURATED meadow,
Sun-shaped and jewel-small,
A circle scarcely wider
Than the trees around were tall;
Where winds were quite excluded,
And the air was stifling sweet
With the breath of many flowers, --
A temple of the hear.
There we bowed us in the burning,
As the sun's right worship is,
To pick where none could miss them
A thousand orchises;
For though the grass was scattered,
yet every second spear
Seemed tipped with wings of color,
That tinged the atmosphere.
We raised a simple prayer
Before we left the spot,
That in the general mowing
That place might be forgot;
Or if not all so favored,
Obtain such grace of hours,
that none should mow the grass there
While so confused with flowers.
