Summary

My mother has a model in wood of this very simple flower. She used to have it in the office where a real flower does not have much future...

At some point the pot was lost so I decided to make a printed one, but why stop there? I also replicated both flower and leaf with Bezier curves and left it parametric so others could get different versions with the same model.

The three pieces are fixed together making use of a wooden stick, a long one.

As said, the interesting part is that both flower and leaf make use of Bezier curves. If you find it interesting check the code, and if you don't know what Bezier curves check this nice tutorial on them (and chapter 20 too).

Note that the flower takes its time to render and generate, it's a bit complex, sorry :)

You can find this model on the github repo

Although you can customize it I leave one version as stl uploaded for direct printing.
