I know that this is not a popular books since she didn't attribute the models but I have also noticed that on my version there is a flower on the front that doesn't appear in the book.
that was actually the first origami book I ever bought, I got it in a charity shop for a quid and sadly, I still don't know who those flowers are by or how to make them, but look on the bright side - there are better origami flowers out there with diagrams that are easier to find
Yeah I just dug it out, it was my first book too. I thought of it as I just got another book of origami flowers but nothing quite like it is in there. I'll keep looking about though.
That looks to me like a flower by Akira Yoshizawa that I learned when I was at the Bay Area Rapid Foders meeting in San Francisco. I don't know where diagrams can be found, but I can talk you through it if you want.
*edit* wait, no, I'm wrong. It's got different petals...
So it is, pretty cheeky. The publishers must have got lazy, Hamlyn was the oringal publisher of the other one as well. I hope it is actually in that one
That's how I think it's done:

The diagrams are just small sketches from my brain without actually folding one and they aren't very accurate at all, but you'll get the idea.
Oo thank you! I will try that out, your diagram makes it seem similar to other flowers from Origami Flowers: Popular Blossoms and Creative Bouquets that I have been working through so I might even amange it
