Domed Dahlia on a Long Curving Stem

A single dahlia sits at the top of a long, gently curving stem, its petals packed in overlapping layers. The outer petals are wide and rounded, while the ones near the center get smaller and more pointed, which gives the bloom a full, domed look. Two large leaves branch off the stem, one on each side, and each has a center vein with short lines running out from it. The word DAHLIA is written in bold outlined letters along the bottom. This page is free to print, and the thick outlines make it easy for younger kids to stay inside the lines. Try coloring the petals in rings, using a lighter shade on the outside and a deeper one toward the middle, so children can see how the layers build up. The labeled name also works well for early spelling practice.
