This flower carnation "Clavel"  in Spain the call. And normally it taught with
8 paper rectangles 2x1 and 1 square of 2x2 to the stem. This makes it not
dangerous. It is a popular and traditional flower. Typically used at the
fair and bars  You can see the diagram

Leyla your flower here you have by traditional and folds as Zorrorigami says
but is different from the "Carnation".

Hi, Leyla   6/10/2015

What a treat to hear about the way this lovely model turns up in so many
corners of the world!

Let me put on record the very simple-minded version that I loved making as
a kid, in 1950s in Chicago, from tissues (i.e. paper handkerchiefs like
Kleenex) and pipecleaners. The only folding required was the fan-pleating.
The tricky part was separating the 2 layers of each tissue.

Googling turned up these directions, using tissue paper (i.e. for gift wrap)
