Fold each triangle into a traditional iris: http://www.davidpetty.me.uk/mom/mom26a.htm
Afterwards put them into each other.

After that you can fold another one from an hexagon (better if you do it in green) and use it as sepals :wink:

Or:

It can be folded from one square.

First, fold John Montroll's six-sided-square (it's a preliminary base with not 4 but 6 flaps), then continue just like as the traditional lily/iris (squash, petal fold and narrow each flap).

Some of the flaps will become a bit thick, but it still can be done even with 80g printer paper.

The six-sided-square instructions can be found in Teach yourself origami.
