Zinnia Flower With Ruffled Petals and Two Leaves

A single round flower sits on top of a long, thin stem, drawn with bold black outlines. The bloom has a small bumpy center with a frilly top edge, surrounded by layered rows of petals. The petals near the middle are rounder and smoother, while the outer ones have wavy, jagged tips that give the flower a fluffy look. Two long pointed leaves curve out from the base of the stem, one on each side, each with a few short lines marking the veins. There is no background, so the page stays clean and open. Try coloring the center in a deeper shade and fading the petals outward in lighter tones, like orange to yellow. It also works well for a kids' lesson on the parts of a flower: petals, stem, and leaves. The free printable is easy to fit onto one sheet.
