flower description
Description of a rose:
Grande fleur jaune turbinée, légèrement parfumée.
Any ideas on how one might describe this in English? I imagine that the flower has twisted petals, but I'm not absolutely sure.

But imagine a stick as centre you can attach paper petals around it either in the way you would see them on a marigold (they\'d open flat) or you can roll them around your stick, giving a more shriveled look and a much more condensed one (more like an arum, if you want).
