Delightful Orchids

The delicate beautiful blossoms
Taken from Mother Nature’s folds
So delightful and soft are the colors
And so rare as we watch them unfold

They are intricate and truly charming
Their design is extremely unique
They have distinctive little faces too
Once they have reached their peak

The Orchids are the top of the line
When it comes to all the flowers
But they need extra tending to be
As fresh as the noon-day showers

It is so amazing to see a flower
As complex as these Orchids are
They brighten up a green house
And are the classiest flower by far

So if you get the chance, folks
To observe this flower some time
Look at the huge assortment of
The loveliest flower you can find!

This model was inspired by one of our previous posts, a Cup of Water by Silas Vriend. I was sitting here, wasting away in the summer heat, thinking of nice, cool things like water, and flipping through Flickr photos, when I saw Silas' post, and an idea formed in my head of how to fold this.

Diagrams here.

Some advice-- use something that will hold a crease well, not foil; and fold from printer paper or larger, step 25 is really, really hard to do if you've never done those before. I should also say, the lines made in step 18 are 22.5º

If you get stuck on the last step, try taking a look at some of Philip Chapman-Bell's work-- he's used similar twist closures before.
