Garden Rose Bloom Coloring Page

Overlapping petals build from the rose's outer edges toward its tight center, with each petal displaying curved contours and natural folds in this printable coloring page. The five leaves spread outward in different directions, their jagged tooth-like edges creating rhythm around the composition. Two small triangular thorns protrude from the smooth stem, positioned at different heights to show the plant's protective features. The layered petal structure gives you room to practice gradual color blending, moving from darker outer edges to lighter centers within each petal curve. Try using burgundy, coral, or classic red tones for the bloom while the leaves might feature forest green with darker shading along the serrated points. The stem and thorns need just a touch of olive or brown to ground the entire illustration with natural tones.
