The Dupree rose is built from separate flat components: five large petals, five small petals, two kinds of stamens, a pistil, and a green receptacle. Layer height and petal angle create the final botanical form.

Project development preview
The project is still being prepared. These notes show the intended workflow without suggesting that a finished product is available.
Make every component separately
Prepare the large and small petals, long and short stamens, pistil, and green receptacle as individual flat pieces.
Use a two-sided fuse
Press both faces between protective sheets, then cool the pieces under weight so they remain flat before shaping.
Set the five large petals
Attach the outer layer to the green base with a gentle outward tilt, rotating evenly around the center.
Add the small-petal layer
Place smaller petals slightly higher and offset them so they cover the gaps in the first ring.
Complete the detailed center
Install the long stamens, central pistil, and shorter stamens in stages, using tweezers for the final spacing.
