Favorite Origami Plant

Post by Lephantome92 »

I had a real dragon tree which, despite being well watered, died. So, pretty self-explanatory, what plant do you like the best which is either diagrammed or easy CP? I want some kind of plant just to liven up my dorm room. I don't totally care if it's pure or modular, but something reasonable.

@OrigamiGeek I'd prefer instructions if you had them, but if it's a basic CP then I can try it.

Oh, I have a general question for everyone- a year or two ago I found diagrams for Chan's 1-sheet rose and printed them out. Unfortunately, I have since lost both the page and the link. If anyone knows where *diagrams* are, I'd be very ecstatic.

That's really neat! Thanks! Hrm, I found Chan's 1-sheed rose, so maybe make a bunch growing together, and have some grass all around? I think that'd be neat!

I've got a Flower Pot design, my diagrams are drawn but not yet scanned. If you like, I can work on those some.
